 There ain't really that many places them meecees can get into the trailers,,,it'd be worth it to pay somebody to get under it with a caulkin gun and a couple of tubes and seal it all up good.

the camper was emptied out, no sense in wasting any left over food items, we brings it in the house and I eats it! we even took the plates and coffee cups out, cuz they always gotta be washed anyways after sitting all year in there!

Also, take anything food related OUT of the camper over the winter months. In other words, your cupboards need to be completely BARE!

I got three cats here and the only mice I ever see are either dead or half eaten.  One of my dogs is just as good a mouser as the cats, but she usually does her huntin' in the far south pasture.

Build one of those 5 gal bucket traps with a beer can covered with peanut butter. Antifreeze in the bottom makes for a more effective, all weather trap

I'm thinking about putting the cat, a big bag on cat food and a large litter box along with a 3 gallon chicken waterer in ours. . seriously, don't buy mouse poison at a discount store. I think they love it. That is supposed to be scarcasam or however the heck you spell it. You gots to use them quite regular, keep moving the motor home around to cornfuse the little critters. Park it up on the cement??? Might help.
