Starting from the closest tap to the furthest including the outside shower and low point drains etc, run each tap until pink flows.

As far as rodent traps, I leave a couple traps on the edges of the floor near the furnace vents. In all the years we have had trailers I have only had mice once and the vents were their preferred place to hide. Never did figure out how they got in though.
