Mice In Rv Walls

There are a number of things that an rv owner can do to keep mice out of their camper especially when storing the camper.

Mice in rv walls. For instance the shop we are parked 3 feet from has mice i ve seen them. While mice may not like these smells mice are extremely persistent. Cracks around doors poorly sealed pull out sections gaps around plumbing or wiring gaps in the floor corners or cracks where walls meet access panels for plumbing electrical etc. Commonly recommended deterrents include peppermint oil mothballs pine needle spray dryer sheets and oddly enough irish spring bar soap.

Using various scents to keep mice at bay is usually the first thing rvers try to correct the problem. If you hear these types of sounds and want to be sure what it is bang on the wall close to the source. It is very deceiving. The first thing you do.

Mice scratching and chewing in the walls can sound as if the source of the noise should be bigger than a raccoon rummaging around in there. Keep windows and doors closed make sure that all of your w as well as your outside storage doors doors are firmly closed all of their gaskets are in good shape and that all the doors seat well when closed and locked. Mice will emerge from your walls in search of food and that s your best window of opportunity to catch them.

A dead mouse should not be left to rot inside your wall because its corpse could soon attract fleas.

Dead mice in walls in some cases evidence of a rodent problem could all be down to your sense of smell. And they are so persistent it drives homeowners batty.

The reason i say that is because we are parked on a grain farm and grain farms attract mice it s just what they do. Bait multiple traps with peanut butter or cheese and place them wherever you ve found. Even if you haven t seen any critters in your house the stench of dead mice may have accumulated in the interior of your walls.
