My favorite mouse story is from a car. A smell was coming from the drivers side A post. It was believed that a mouse had got in the A post and died. Plan was to cut out A post and replace. Huge job. Country boy said drill a couple of small holes in the A post and pour a little Coke in to the A post. Next introduce some ants. They will follow the Coke and also eat the mouse. Then when the smell is gone which was only two days spray some ant killer in A post. Brilliant idea from the guy who grew up in the country.

My wife and I live in our Alliance Paradigm 372rk full time. We started having mouse problems the beginning of the fall. Our kitchen is in the back and it seemed that was where the mouse was getting in. I pulled up the board in the cabinet under the kitchen sick and saw a huge opening to the underneath of the trailer. I found some insulation foam that is for blocking rodents from coming in. After I sealed that we stopped having rodent problems.

@buzzward812 7 месяцев назад

It’s almost impossible to keep them out of the basement but you need to remove every drawer and look in every cabinet that leads from the belly to the interior. You will be surprised on the number of access points they have. Fill all those access points with steel wool or expanding foam. In 47 years of campers I haven’t had a mouse since my first camper. The FIRST thing I do when getting a new camper is mouse proof the interior. Wish I could keep them out of the belly and basement but there’s just too many entry points😢

@DinoLeon-10661t 7 месяцев назад

The line off your trailer going to the ground can allow access into trailer. Expanding foam in all areas under belly helps. Peppermint oil on wheels helps little fellas do not like Peppermint. Coffee can lids around cords help prevent critters from climbing into trailer. Good luck. I had a squirrel in the nose of my FQS22 . Was very hard to get him out. Finally used Bear spray he left immediately.

@IreneIronTravels 7 месяцев назад

Good tips! Crazy to hear about that squirrel!

@mikestone9839 7 месяцев назад

Yep finding where they get in is an art or science or luck... I have found that in my case with the Basecamp, steel wool worked great stuffed into the frame i-beam cured the mice from getting in. They do not like to chew on steel wool. It's been over 3 years and haven't had another mouse yet... I think I'm going to check on that steel wool... LOL

@mcdermottjon 7 месяцев назад

As others have suggested, exclusion is the best approach long term. I've had great success using Copper Mesh Wool stuffed into openings, then I spray foam into the pores of the mesh. I like the copper better than steel wool because it doesn't rust and is more substantial. It comes in a tube shape, so you can cut it to length, roll it up into a donut, then stuff into openings or slide it over hoses if you have access to an open end of the hose. Available at DIY pest control online shops.

We got a rat in our engine in Gold Field Arizona. We parked right in front of his little home not knowing. We put peppermint packets on engine to no avail. He rebuilt right on top of them. I put my blue tooth speaker under the open hood and played owl sounds from a looped RU-vid video, also put our chargeable Lucy lights out there. It totally helped. Interestingly it drew owls in all night - they hooted and hooted. Super awsome. Chris, thank you for letting us pet the June Bug yesterday. We are off to Q. Bring on the rock fun!! ❤ 🐾

@kckettridge 7 месяцев назад

YIKES!!! I have sealed every protrusion under our cabinets with that black spray foam insulation to combat any rodent issues. Our two Westhighland White Terriers go crazy when there are any rodents in "their" vacinity. Glad you caught the little critter.

@mariagarito 7 месяцев назад

I keep a lot of spare parts. Never thought of mouse traps. Adding traps to the list. Great tip!

@robertrogers7952 7 месяцев назад

Try using steel wool to plug those opening, also canned foame works real well. Good luck keeping those little fellows out.

@tonychristie2450 7 месяцев назад

We had our Alliance for 6 months before we got our first mouse. Which turned out to be mice. 6 to be exact. I’m a light sleeper and though I heard something, and in the morning…boom droppings on the floor. That day I put out traps in all of the places I thought they were getting in, and that night we got them. And yes they got into under the island and moved out from there. We got them all in one night, cleaned everything then left the traps out for a couple days for any stragglers. In our case the dogs food was the attractant.

@danielbarrett6026 7 месяцев назад

One of the first things we did when we got our travel trailer is by metal mesh gutter guards, cut to size, and used silicone caulk to fasten the mesh over the large openings. The smaller areas used copper mesh to stuff in the hole with expanding foam to seal up, and topped off with a small piece of metal gutter guard and siliconed it in place.

@airstreamer 7 месяцев назад

Oh NO! And then not full hook up. So glad there was only one, and you found where the entry point might be. SO Much work.

@user-hs7wd7tg1w 7 месяцев назад

We learned that if we unravel a brillo pad and place it around where the water line enters the van from outside, it will not only prevent the mice from entering the van, but also kill them, since they eat the brillo pad.

@kceynelson 7 месяцев назад

5 years of living in my fifth wheel. I recently started leaving a trap under the kitchen sink at all times to hopefully catch them when they first come in. There is also spray foam that is meant for resent prevention. You can use it in all the holes in the floor where the water pipes come in. I haven’t had a mouse issue since I’ve been setting traps but the spray foam has been on my list of things to do.

@michaelnales449 7 месяцев назад

We had a lot of construction around our home and we had like 5 mice climb up through our gas fireplace hose. I got a trap that electricutes then and that was the best thing, no fuss no mess. We caught 5 in one night. The light would go from Red to Green if it was tripped and all you heard was a little squeek when it went off. I hate the conventional traps as many things can go wrong and sometimes can be messy and not in a good way.... I have seen some things....disturbing things.

@PriorDaryl 6 месяцев назад

Take a cotton ball and put vanilla extract on a lil piece of the cotton ball. Use that as your bait. My exterminator gave me this tip for personal trapping. The mice are attracted to it for the smell and bedding. This way you are not providing sustenance to them if the trap doesn't spring. This has worked for me. He said there are fancy gels but the ingredients are vanilla extract and said the gels are expensive but extract is not and usable for cooking.

@yooperdog 7 месяцев назад

I also check in my engine compartment and look for little foot prints. No wire chewers in our engine bay.

@albacristancho3104 7 месяцев назад

For the tupperware… I always store the containers with the lid on to prevent bugs to touch the inside. I know it uses more space but it keeps them clean ready to use. Also help you minimize the amount of containers to what you really use. Also you can consider putting them in zipper bags if keeping the lids separated Great video…thanks!

@barbarapadgett5538 7 месяцев назад

“Dark grain rice that you don’t remember buying”. I’m sorry but I laughed til I couldn’t see any more. 😂 I know when I deal with mice every year when it starts getting cold, I end up losing a couple of nights sleep as I have to catch it immediately. I cannot sleep knowing that there is a mouse in the house. I’m sorry you had to deal with all that. Yes a dish washer is fantastic to have when you have a clean up this big. Good luck. I hope you can stuff some steel mesh in their entry point!

@debbiecarter4558 7 месяцев назад

Just got my first one ( 2 actually) a few weeks ago. They had a party and evidently went through the clothes also

@kathyheither7365 7 месяцев назад

Any time you leave the doors open on outside storage areas there is a chance mice will come in.

@elizabethprochnow5443 Месяц назад

Many thanks for this video on how to deal with mice in an RV! We play your videos regularly, and when we spotted a mouse in our motorhome last night around 10:00 pm, your video immediately came to mind because it was so thorough. We rewatched it, and then at 11:30 pm, we decided it was better to invest a few hours setting traps overnight than waiting till the next day. That way hopefully there would be only one sleepless night rather than two. We found some traditional traps at a 24hour Walgreen's store. They worked! When we got up in the morning, we had captured two mice. My biggest takeaway from the whole experience is to keep about 8 traps in your RV because this is going to happen at some point, and a late night drive might not even be an option when it does happen. We were lucky in that we could get the traps with just an hour round trip.

@IreneIronTravels Месяц назад

Wow, what a great story!! So glad it worked out for you to get traps and get them on the first night! Such an important thing to do! Yes, we have carried traps in our RV ever since the first time we got mice back in 2020. I think disinfectant was what we were missing this time. Good job to you!

@rickphillips4966 7 месяцев назад

I like sticky traps, just toss the trap and mouse out. CO has been mouse haven for us. Caught 5 in 2 days there. Sticky trap can catch more than one at a time. We like peppermint on cotton balls to keep them out.

@thegypsycouple 7 месяцев назад

I feel your pain. We were staying on a friends farm moochdocking (Farm should have been our first clue 😂). We dropped our underbelly and left it dropped for a couple days!!! One night there were “sounds” above our bed (ORV 20BD). Thought it was squirrels on roof - nope!! Next night same thing so we opened the above bed cabinet and pulled everything out. 2 juvenile and 6 infants in my hoodies!! We blocked Mom’s path and she drove us nuts most of the night trying to get back to her babies. Next day traps set under bathroom sink, above the bed (removed access panel to place trap and replaced panel), 2 under the bathtub, one under fridge. Same day we sealed up the underbelly. 24 caught in 14 hours - until we figured how they were getting in. The front cap on our ORV was open on the sides underneath, unfettered access to the roof. Sealed that up and so far so good. We have since purchased a trap from Amazon that sits on top of a 5 gallon bucket, bait the roof and they fall into bucket. Lesson learned!!! Heard the above trap trip one night, could tell it didn’t finish off mouse because we heard it getting dragged around above us. We never did find it!!

@IreneIronTravels 7 месяцев назад

Whoa! 😳

@calvinchristensen4949 7 месяцев назад

Use steel wool in the openings. They don’t like to chow through that. We use it for when in us and in storage. Good luck.

@IreneIronTravels 7 месяцев назад

👍👍 Thanks!

@arizonaaerialproductions6390 7 месяцев назад

Another trick you can use is placing rope lighting (5000K brightness) on the ground around / under the trailer. They don't like lights.

@danrambow7721 7 месяцев назад

not to jinx ourselves, but during our last 27 years of RVing, and 12 years of condo living prior to that, we haven't had mice. Even when neighbors had them, we looked and looked. But what we have had constantly, is one or two cats. I think the mice may just smell them and pass us by. Although when growing up, we had cats and dogs, and mice crawling through various gaps in our 1910 vintage house. My folks put out traps, but no one got overly concerned with them. Just cleaned up on an as-needed basis. I guess we were just lucky to grow up, and survived no seat belts, car seats, mice, iodine and bandages, vinegar and baking soda for cleaners, and dirt.

@Crud-Cake 7 месяцев назад

Good video. The best traps that I’ve used are the plain, old fashioned, Victor mouse traps that have been around for decades. Peanut butter always does the trick.

@jrt0127 4 месяца назад

Use cooper wool for all of the plumbing entry points in the kitchen and bathroom We have learned this the hard way

@timaz1066 7 месяцев назад

I always have glue traps that are baited at strategic points in the RV and a couple down in compartments where it stays warm. Always. I guess I’m lucky that I’ve never had a mouse above the floor level in my motorhome. And I’ve only gotten 2 miles the whole time I’ve been full timing and both of those I trapped with a old spring style mouse trap with peanut butter. Plug the hole where your pipes come in with steel wool, and then spray foam to hold it there.

@dawnie3029 7 месяцев назад

OMG! That was definitely a huge project to clean up. That’s our favorite thing about seeing stray cats around RV parks. I’d like to think they are keeping the mice away.

@dondartt684 7 месяцев назад

Twice we have been invaded by mice. This really sucks because of the cleaning. My wife is the mouse catcher, because she stays up late. Three the first time and seven the second time in two different rigs. Mouse traps are the only thing that worked for us. Then you better find out how they are getting into your rv. Steel wool can be a good way to plug a gap - as long as it’s not near a spark or flame. A dime sized hole is all that they need to get inside. Good job capturing that mouse, now you need to figure out the point of entry and block it off. Good luck hopefully you won’t have to deal with this problem again.

@Gunbucket1964 4 месяца назад

We put a bar of Irish Spring soap in each drawer and cabinets. They don't seem to like it.

@gardnergerry1182 7 месяцев назад

We use Fresh Cab Rodent Repellent. Never had a mouse even when we stored the trailer 6 months at a local fairgrounds in a dairy barn. I put one bag in each compartment and also under the fridge and under the counter. It's cheaper at Tractor Supply than Amazon.

@joanfarrell778 7 месяцев назад

Use dryer sheets in your drawers under your silverware tray (change them out occasionally), there are also pouches with very potent spices that irritate their noses. We got a couple mice last summer and I used every thing available to deter them from coming in ie: green Irish spring soap, vanilla scented car tree freshener, and now the rodent pouches.

@williamarmstrong9970 7 месяцев назад

Our FIRST and only to date (I'm confident will be more) was in BLM area at MOAB. Because of our very large dog 155LBS wanting to sleep with my wife I was on the table bed. At 2:30 AM I felt a tickle on my arm that woke me up, then another tickle. I sprang up with my phone light to find the CULPRIT, it was between the wall and the cushion! Pocket knife (no trap needed) and blood all over. It came in through the hole made when we installed solar panels, the power wiring to the inverter. Plugged up the next day and done.

@joyrogers124 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for such an informative video! Thankfully, we've not had mice in the almost 5 years we've been traveling in our Outdoors RV 21KVS. We learned from our first trailer, a Passport, to block all those access points from outside (with spray foam) after a mouse woke us in the wee hours. And our little Terrier mix slept right thru it 😄 Glad your pups alerted you to the intruder & you were able to fix the situation sooner than later.

@snowbirdlady7221 7 месяцев назад

Mice chewed right through (and spit out) the expanding foam around my water lines!

@HandiLuv 6 месяцев назад

Thanks 🙏🏾 for posting this video. I’m getting ready to go into my 3rd season of RV camping. I’ve never had a mouse so I’ve never even remotely thought about having mouse traps in my supply stash until I watched this video. So thanks! I will purchase mouse traps for this up coming season.

@MrCarpetcleaningpro 7 месяцев назад

Hi Chris and Arron I’ve owned a cleaning business for over 25 years and my recommendation would be to get a thymol cleaning product my recommendations would be Benefect or Concrobium kills and disinfects bacteria and viruses and is completely food safe and you don’t need any PPE. happy travels. We enjoy the show. Love the dogs.

@IreneIronTravels 7 месяцев назад

Appreciate that thanks! We actually had a part in the video that got cut out about Chris not using bleach to clean because she just doesn't know how to safely use it! I'll let her know about this!

@rowdiegurl 7 месяцев назад

We had one in our van. Slept side to side and, because hubby is exactly as tall as the van was wide, the cheeky little bugger ran across his forehead in the middle of the night. So gross! Didn't take us long to get it, but even 10 minutes is too long! We have since switched to an RV, and haven't had one. I hope we don't have to do it anytime soon.

@Cyfi71 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the heads up on the new mouse trap. I had one I brought home from Arizona and he got into my silverware drawer and two others so yeah, that's a big disinfect job for sure. Had sticky traps out and never got him. I hope he got out an isn't still in the rig but I've been surprise free for a month. I suspect the slide mount was the entry point also so that is a hard point to secure.

@cpwatching5647 7 месяцев назад

Turds. Bummer. Nice recovery. Hope you were able to find a way to mitigate all possible entry points. Prevention is the best way.

We use a no kill metal box trap from Menards that has an entrance on both sides. Might be a little too big for an RV though.

@susanbird1694 7 месяцев назад

Irish Spring Soap works great 👍 And Peppermint oil to keep them away. I have had to do the same thing.

@arizonaaerialproductions6390 7 месяцев назад

Why are you not placing traps outside of the RV to keep the mice from the inside. I place the traps near anything touching the ground. We also purchased a few of the live bucket lid traps.

@darrylt5300 7 месяцев назад

you know what is worse then a mouse in the RV is a mouse in the RV and truck, I picked up a mouse at a RV park and had my truck parked for a week and a mouse got under the hood and did $6000 dollars worth of damage eating the radiator and the AC compressor and wiring and one in the RV but I got the one in the RV right away with no damage now I have sonic with flashing lights hard wired to both batteries under the hood of the truck and went to Grampa Gus web site and got his bean bags and other stuff like peppermint oil to keep them away and so far so good.

What's the balance between baiting them to a trap and attracting them into the camper with the same bait?

@tomstone8976 7 месяцев назад

on our last camping trip of the year we had a mouse. He kept us up all night roaming threw all of our silverware draw and somehow in our upper dish cabinets. Ran to town got a big container and spent the whole day Saturday cleaning every dish and repacking them in a separate container. We ended up with the same traps with the lift bait trigger. Few hours later trap went off. ended up knocking it stupid as the mouse was not in the trap just sitting next to it. Weird. Scooped it up in a small box and finished him off outside. It consumed our camping weekend with lack of sleep and cleaning.

@bertkelly7650 7 месяцев назад

No mice yet...When I winterize I was using a bar of Irish spring soap I cut up and put on top of the tires. Now I'm using chunks of peppermint candy canes you can get cheap after Christmas. Since you move around, keep your cords and hoses off the ground. Find some peppermint oil to squirt on the inside of your tires to keep them at bay. For under your truck, use a motion detector light.

@kenmcclow8963 7 месяцев назад

My dogs are useless. They lose their minds for cats, squirrels, raccoons and deer, but mice they don’t care about. The reason the mice were visiting was the dog food in the bowl. I set up motion detection cameras and lights and all of my mouse activity was between 9pm and 1am but could shift by an hour. After I blocked the access there was chewing on that spot for four nights and they were gone. I used the same trap with the bait in the little container and I have video of a mouse jumping three feet sideways away from it without setting it off. I also used mouse and rat sized glue traps. Some of them were dragged but nothing was caught. I never caught any but they stopped coming in once their entry was closed off

@campingalan 7 месяцев назад

Hi there! You two have some incredible guard dogs! Pro tip….the more you scratch their ears, the more they will hunt mice! I remember watching your mouse in the van video. Whooaaa…that is awhile ago. Ughhhh..our house is 135 yrs old. It has MANY MANY mouse entrances hehehehe. I have been combating them with normal spring traps…..but we still get surge periods when they are trying to come in for the winter. A few weeks ago, I bought a 5 gal pickle bucket that has a rotating paddle wheel gizmo on the top (just like the Mississippi paddle boats). We went to the Mojave desert for 2 weeks, and I came back to 10 floating mice, 2 of which were the larger pack rats. Safe travels!

@bingauxmaxwell5116 7 месяцев назад

At the points of entry, especially the island, stuff peices of steel wool in the entry pipe. This forbids mice from entering.

@sarahmcarthur9107 4 месяца назад

The worst feeling is seeing the mouse shit after you've grabbed a spoon from the drawer (not really seeing because you're not really awake yet) and have used it to stir your coffee, which you've just drunk. I trapped 21 of the little suckers in one day once--it was like they flash-mobbed my house. I got pretty tough at that point, but it's never fun. Oh, and FYI, chipmunks may LOOK cute and cuddly, but their teeth are just as long and gross, and they'll eat anything. I had squirrels in my garage--they ruined all my son's baby stuff and ate through the primer bubble on my weed-eater, cost me $60 to get fixed. I HATE killing things, but sometimes you just gotta do it. 😜

If you put steel wool around in the holes they won’t come in.

I have a live trap and when I catch one they go into the witness protection program and get relocated far away.

Hi guy's my rv trailer had a mouse I used Electronic mouse trap that works with batteries. This thing is fantastic to use around pets because it's sealed unit. Yes, I did catch the mouse within 1 day. It's called a Victor electronic mouse trap. And it runs with 4AA batteries. And you do beat it with a little bit of peanut butter. I recommend skippies. Now, what's time to crawl under the underbelly of the RV and look for small cracks which I did. And I used a black spray foam insulation to cover up any sort of holes. Look any sort of entry ways such as the. Black tank release .and Is any propane gas? Hoses or pipes underneath the RV which will attract mice to follow along to get you to the hall. Which I found many, many holes, which the RV is only a 2022 sunset trails.

I'd check your pass through compartment also, as if they could get to your island, they could get everywhere else.

@IreneIronTravels 7 месяцев назад

Good call yes! The lines go right to the passthrough as well. I couldn't tell if they were back there, but I think they chose inside looking for food. But I put traps out there as well.👍

I thought basenjis were hunting dogs. Apparently not those two! Aren't they used in the Congo to flush lions out of their dens? Guess a mouse is too small for them to bother with. Hahaha!

Stuff those openings with steel wool

@paulmadkow9143 7 месяцев назад

Been RVING for decades. Been full timing since 2016. Never had mice. Just lucky I guess.

@nancyrojas1926 7 месяцев назад

So peppermint with cinnamon around RV will help create a barrier mice don't like the smell therefore will not proceed .

@SandyMBuckner 7 месяцев назад

If you put the peanut butter on a small piece of cotton ball they have to jerk it to get it. Randy has had the best luck with that.We had our first camper mice this fall in 5 years…

@IreneIronTravels 7 месяцев назад

Interesting!!

@FloridaNativeMike 7 месяцев назад

Well, now you need to close up the openings so his friends don’t come over!

Question: I see in the 5th wheel family room area is a non-ducted A/C unit. I have an Dometic (non-ducted) A/C and I think it is loud. I have not had a ducted A/C unit. Was your other trailer ducted and what is the noise compared to each other? Thank you (Reply at your leisure)

Did you go under the RV with the lights on at night to look for an entry point?

@claytonvogel1252 7 месяцев назад

PS. We keep a trap out 24 7 365. They dont wander much. Wack.lol

@rollinwithdemrevs1118 7 месяцев назад

We hate them. Mice are like bears to me (Donia), I'm terrified of them. We keep the snap traps set up all the time for just in case. Yuck, you guys are giving us flash backs from us having to do all that, crazy how one tiny rodent can cause so much mess. Great job.

I had a mouse get into my hot pad glove and nest ughh

@danmurphy1742 7 месяцев назад

Place tin/aluminum foil in the opening where you showed the hot and cold water pipes and any other opening you can find. ‘The web’ says mice cannot eat foil.

@IreneIronTravels 7 месяцев назад

Good tip! Ive been contemplating the best way to seal that hole and not get in the way of the slide mechanism!

@bryansprenger 7 месяцев назад

The island is one of the entry points, this is starting to sound a little like “Survivor" Reality RV show. Good video!

We were sleeping in our Class A and we heard a scurry then our cat leap out of his bed, uggh! Mouse! Hubby helped the cat catch the tiny critter. Sammie our Cavalier King Charles who comes from royal lines bred to protect the monarchy from rodents, fast asleep!! 😂

@garretlewis4103 7 месяцев назад

The creepy ice cream music…….was the ice cream truck driven by a clown by chance? 🤡🤡. On a serious note. You can put steel wool into gaps/holes to keep the mice out.

@IreneIronTravels 7 месяцев назад

I've never seen an ice cream truck like that in a campground..but it sure was weird!

Your video hit home . We just left Cottonwood AZ. We heard scratching behind our tv. There is storage back there. Unfortunately I found a power bar chewed open. Thankfully I had mouse traps with us. Yes, peanut butter is great for catching them. We use the Victor M393SSR Power-Kill Easy Set Mouse Trap. I caught over the next 2 nights. I placed some outside the rv as well. Nothing there, so they must have stayed in the rv during the day. No issues after I caught the two. So a question for the group… do lights under the rv chase them away? Ideas thinking about getting a solar powered security light and place one on the ground, either end of the trailer. They are motion activated. I figured the bright light would shine under the trailer and scare them. Has anyone fond this?

@IreneIronTravels 7 месяцев назад

I'm a believer that the lights don't work. If a mouse smells food, or wants to escape the cold to find a new home they'll find a way in!
