I don't understand why the manufactures don't take the steps to seal off these entry points to begin with. So frustrating.

@shanepitzer4323 7 месяцев назад

I don’t think you understand how small a mouse can make itself. It’s impossible for manufacturers to seal all the holes. Then the RV couldn’t breath and it would mold. 🤓

@joanmarshall6653 7 месяцев назад

We slept with our door open on a warm night. A critter came in through the bug net by chewing his way in. After it got in, it wanted to get out. What a racket! We were up and down all night long trying to find it. laid out four sticky traps to no avail. About 6am I shone my headlamp to the front of the cab and there it was…a huge kangaroo rat! I was sure it was going to bite my leg off. I quickly swung open the cab door and ran back to the safety of my bed. It must have run out as after that all was quiet. Smoky Mountain road south of Escalante.

@ricktaylor6373 Год назад

I’ve been using old school wood traps around the motorhome and under hood, also cotton balls with mint oil under hood and in coach, foam spray underneath as well plus mint spraying underneath and engine bay. So far it’s keeping them at bay. Also when my wife turns into a “pest” I take a squirt bottle with water and spritz her once or twice and out the coach she goes! Works for 60 seconds at best.👍

Recommend for Winter Storage is to place a Rinnetraps - Flip-N-Slide Bucket Mouse trap, in your storage area! Use car antifreeze in the bottom of the bucket to keep the animals from stinking up the place when they die! Bait the lid with peanut butter!

@timf6916 Год назад

We try to use the old school stuff, only good rodent is a DEAD one. I don’t like deterrence, I like NO Entry method.

@suemeyer7551 Год назад

When I bought my used Dutchman, I paid to have the whole underneath sprayed with a spray foam deterrent at an rv dealer. Best peace of mind I ever spent! It was parked at a lake surrounded by farmers fields. I would also put a few boxes of super smelly fabric softener sheets everywhere when closing up in the fall. Do not put them closed up where you keep your food in the future. I couldn't get the scent out for months & the marshmallows tasted horrible! lol Also, do not store items, especially piles of firewood underneath. Its like a ladder for them. Never had one even once in over 10 years!

@roger766 Год назад

True all methods you mentioned about rodents, nothing worked! Best thing I found is that over the winter I put in the solid bait blocks. They will get in, so I give them food! They eat it, makes them want water, they exit and die! End of one mouse! Eat and repeat! My evening is stored inside so traps out of everything so to catch them bef entering too. Works for me!

We’ve had our rv for 7 years. Foamed all holes and entry points we could. Used peppermint oil in small bowls to deter mice, never had a problem. Just took rv out of storage this winter and had tons of mouse damage. They were even in an open drawer with a peppermint bowl right next to it, it didn’t seem to bother them at all. We had a very strange, warm winter here in Minnesota, maybe that made the difference. Who knows??

We just got rid of our mouse. This is the second one. You aren’t kidding finding any point of entry and sealing it up is the first step. Keep all doors closed it’s a port of entry. The size of a dime is all they need to enter. Mouse traps the plastic ones worked well.

Thank you so much for this video. My RV is a diy campervan. I have a mouse nest in the under the hood in the Engine. I recently had some work done on the van. The mechanic noted some wires chewed and looked around until he found a nest. The van is running great at the moment. But I am very concerned about that nest and want to remove it. I suspect whatever mouse made it fell out many miles ago. Whether it did or not, a mouse nest seems like an invitation. Next stops on my agenda? Rv shop, Napa and more mint oil!

@davidaustin8782 Год назад

While working on our RV, (Tiny House on Wheels) in the backyard, we started to see evidence of mice. Sealing all places they might get in is a great idea but as I was replacing the subfloor this was not an option. We trapped a few, but they kept coming. We bought a few of the Eliminator Ultrasonic Rodent and Pest Repellers and plugged them in. We have not seen a mouse since. Finding a similar product made in America would be better, but these did the job.

We found a mouse accessed our rv via the pin box! We parked too close and it use the truck to get up there. We put some traps out and got it leaving our cap one night. I see all kinds of people leaving their 7 pin hanging on the ground like a highway for them. Once we sealed around the cord in the pinbox, we were good! Not that we didn’t get every crack and crevice as well…..😂

You can use stainless steel wool that is course. The copper can be eaten through. I’ve used the stainless steel wool for our camper and you don’t have rust issues and the critter don’t like it.

@ernestdesimone2234 2 месяца назад

I use poison Bait Chunx cubes. They have a hole through them and you can use a zip tie to place them in various places under the hood, etc. The mice eat it and quickly die. So far I have not had any damage from mice. To keep bugs out of my RV garage and the RV itself, I use Raid house foggers inside the RV garage while the RV is parked in there.

@hooterfivesix Год назад

I use brass wool to plug the smaller holes. The steel wool makes a nasty mess when it rusts. I used 1/4" galvanized mesh to eliminate larger entrances. You really have to become an investigator. The manufacturer of my RV cut a 6" square hole to feed 1/2" of wires to our entertainment center. SO many oversize holes to fill, electrical, plumbing, walls, floor, AND ceiling. Look in your basement for plumbing and electrical feeds. It took me a week of cabinet disassembly, crawling in, around, and under my RV. Make sure to remove ALL edibles. I found a fried mouse in my toaster. It was going for the crumbs in the tray on the bottom. They ate my Irish Spring soap.

@216baja Год назад

Gret tips to prevent mice entering your RV. I use the copper mesh instead of the steel wool because the wool does rust and could stain. I will consider the rid a rat item. In addition to sealing the underbelly of the RV, I also recommend using the copper mesh in the corners of your slide out too for when in use or in storage.

@sharonwolfe870 8 месяцев назад

What do you mean copper mesh in the "indoor" corners of your slide or outside?

@ShepherdschapelYTexplainsbible Год назад

I put another layer of defense in the cubbies and nooks and crannies under the sink etc I put blocks of decon along the walls that way if they happen to infiltrate the be a second line of defense. From what I heard after they eat it and get sick they go find somewhere to die. Might not be suitable if you got pets if they kill them after they've already ingested it. For ants I just use corn syrup with boric acid if you start early enough in the year you can pretty much annihilate the area surrounding your RV.

@markko1968 7 месяцев назад

Found on 2 trailers that the worst sealed area is the shower/vent drain penetration. Wall panel removal is necessary. Had squirls fit through. Trying cloves and cinnamon in pouches and clove/peppermint oil sprays as mouse deterrent for home/garage/car everthing this year. Up in the north mice seem to love poison and seems to attract them.

Bounce fabric softener sheets work very well on the inside of vehicles or campers. Plus they smell nice….for a while. And on the outside I use Tom Cat bait boxes.

My fifth wheel trailer is stored under a pavillion in the Adirondacks. I was overrun by mice when I first bought the land. I have several layers of defence. The first is drowning buckets, either the rolling can, or the trip diving board. The second is a 12VDC electric horse fence. The wire is only about 2" above a grounded hardware cloth. Behind that is a black plastic sheet like a trailer skirt that slows down the mice. Lots of them expire there. If some do get past that, I have the poison blocks and glue traps underneath the trailer. If they do get inside, I have the Ketch-All with the drowning attachment. In the jar, there is RV antifreeze with some olive oil on the top. Anything that drowns in there will not smell or attract flies. I hang a few Hot Shot No-Pest_Strips inside for spiders and flies. I just remove and bag the pest strips when I'm using the camper.

Irish spring did not help nor dryer sheets. We use a product my husband buys at Ace hardware (can’t remember the name) now when the trailer is in storage. Smells awful but it seems to be effective.
