A quick tip. We have tried several methods over the years after finding a squirrel family living in our outdoor kitchen in a former trailer. One of the methods we have used is the ultrasonic devices similar to what is featured in the video. We started to notice our dog behaving erratically, full of stress, pacing around, whining etc. Unplugged the anti rodent device and he was fixed. So fellow dog owners might want to be careful with this particular solution.

Thank you for the tips! In one of our older travel trailer, a mother mouse climbed up the electric cord of the rv and gave birth to her babies under the bed. We had mouse traps going off every night...nightmare.

The dryer sheets always seemed to work to keep mice out of the trunk of my elderly cars, but a few years back a mouse made a nest in the dryer sheets. Black pepper has worked for me in the past with ant problems. I try to have no real poisons around as we have 2 and 4 legged pets. I wish you the best Tara with your health and that things get better for you. Stay safe and well.

Theres a video on youtube of a guy who did an experiment with the top choices. It literally show the mice eating the Irish Spring. The peppermint worked to keep the mice away from the bait.

I used steel wool around my plumbing pipes from the inside, usually works, it’s not messy and easy to remove and put back if work needs to be done

I'm Full timer and just have used the Pest Repellant have 2 in my house and it's 39' 5th wheel going on 3 years now still no mice I do have a few spiders but not many. They do work great

[myninipage]

Downy dryer sheets is all we've ever used for mice. I put them everywhere.... around pipes, in cabinets, tucked in the head of the bed. Have never had a mouse. Plus it makes it smell great.

We use copper wool for the larger gaps going in and ortho home defense spray. Both worked on our home and so far in our first year we haven't had any bugs inside. We also put tomcat mouse bait station under our rv by the tires so the mice will find the food source outside and die so we don't end up with any rodents inside the rv. Our brick and mortar home had a huge mouse and bug problem when we bought it and used a pest company to fix it and understand how to do it ourself. We took those methods and applied them to the rv. You guys are awesome. Since my wife got cancer and we can't tent camp we looked into rv trailers. I came across your YouTube channel and my wife thought I had been RVing for years when we would talk to the dealer or go out with it. Thank you for being here and sharing. It has made a difference in our lives to confidently go on vacation with our three dogs and enjoy life again.

Thank you guys for all the wonderful videos. I’m a new-used motor home owner and I have used so many of your videos to be a DYI on my RV. Tom you explain so many details I don’t feel insecure about tackling the different maintenance jobs I have done. Thank you again, take care and God Bless you and our beautiful USA.... Have a Happy Holidays!!!!

Just bought the Stay Away Spiders from your link... and I honestly hope you get some sort of $$ out of it!!! NO ONE ever discusses pests on the road, and it was one of the biggest FULL STOP inhibitors for me for camper life. IF this works, I'll owe you SO MUCH!!!! (-S from BS 'n BBQ)

[artdebernarde]

We're new subscribers and old Motorhomers now looking at buying a travel trailer or fifth wheel. We've been binge watching ya'all's videos and wanted to let you know how much we have enjoyed them. Y'all are clearly a great team and it shows in every video. We love watching them for not just the content but also the sheer charm y'all exude and the fun conveyed. Keep 'em coming.

Used steel wool in utilities passages between basement and living quarters. No more mice!

Our class A has a wet bay. I have learned to HATE wet bays.
Oh, they are real convenient, one common compartment
where your water & power & tv & dump hose all connect &
stow HOWEVER, all wet bays have a hole in the floor to
route your lines out to the utility pole through. These lines
are a RODENT HIGHWAY. NEVER lay your lines along the
ground where the critters can climb up into your wet bay.
We stuff dryer sheets around the lines through the exit
portal. As time goes by you will notice the sheets lose
their smell. Change them often. No critter likes strong smells
so anything with a strong smell will help deter them. Irish
spring soap, bleach, ammonia, dryer sheets, ben gay.
I like how travel trailers & campervans have all their hookups
connecting to the outside of the rig with NO openings to the inside.
Its on my to do list to do the same to my A.
ALSO, when we return home, unload ALL edibles from the
rig. Leave NOTHING inside to attract a critters. Well, bottled water is OK.

I’m in pest control, for Rats 🐀 I would use foam and steel wool .

[neverstockjp]

Mouse free works great and it smells good too

[johnebakeriii]

Steel wool stuffed in the gaps will keep the mice away, too. They can't chew through it. Just replace it when it gets rusty. FYI: Diatomaceous Earth is a main ingredient in... DYNAMITE! [Boom!] ;)

[ralphwilliams]

I thought this was youtube voodoo. Googled how to get rid of a mouse. I had just gone to TSC and bought mouse traps for my RV. When I got home from that trip your news letter was in my inbox. Now today, the very next morning, , there is a video In my notifications . Would love a video with all my favorite YouTube couples together!.

[michalenestabler]

Awesome video, like always!! We use a combination of things that have worked well for us. We never leave any food of any kinda in the TT when not in use. Also, I’m a clean freak. Sealing the gaps is a big deterrent for the critters. Our TT is parked in what use to be a field of whatever crop was planted that year, this is our 4th year parking there. Knock on wood no critters have use our TT as a home. 🤞🏻it stays that way.

I can't say I'm a fan of lights under the rig, but I'm not everyone. That may change when I get on the road in a few months, we'll see. One of the things that I think helps full timers is the fact that you move quite a bit. It takes animals a while to get used to something new and by the time they're getting comfortable with your rig being there it moves. I have had luck with dryer sheets. I've put them on my bike over the winter and in a car I had stored for 22 months. Never a mouse anywhere and I live in the country and get them in my house even though I have a cat. No problem with the shorter videos, there's probably a 30 to 1 ratio for recording and editing time for every minute of video time. Keep the good stuff coming guys.

On a lot of older RV's the power cord was hard wired in and you just pulled one end out of a hole, and plugged it it.
Anything walking on the wire, walks right it.
Install a bulkhead type setup, so you are plugging in at both ends and its a sealed system.
Those pot scrubber, stainless steel things.... if you stick part of one in the big gaps, before the spray foam, they can't eat their way through it.
Stay safe!
