Looking for suggestions to help eliminate the mice that have gotten into the A/c ducts, and other places of the camper.

I lived at our deer camp for a while after college. I didn't know better and I poisoned those little frickers.

I didn't think the smell was ever going to go away.

Find and seal all holes. Then set peanut butter snap traps inside. Green rat poison outside around perimeter but it must be dog/other animal proof so you don’t kill other animals.

Rat shot and all night card games just wear eye protection.

Do all that and get you some Mouse-Free, it’s a peppermint oil that you spray under and around the camper and it works great. You get the 5 gall can and sprayer when you order. But first must get rid of what you have first.

Get yourself some outdoor camp cats. We picked up a couple from the animal shelter and our mouse problem has significantly improved.

this gave me a chuckle and any peta folks stroke out at this post

However quite effective. Powpow always said a cat will never starve. A dog, however, will.

My uncle put a generator in his shop and ran it until the gas ran out. No more rats and mice.

I’m gonna do the same to my camper next weekend.

Ok I’ll bite... why? A few fixed outdoor cats at the camp work very well IMO. Get an automatic feeder for noon to minimize coon and possum use and the cats work wonders at our camp.

Buch of cabin folks swear by this homemade trap. I tried a few two winters ago and caught nothing, but they come in waves. Every fifth year or so is a nightmare.

Peppermint oil and never eat or cook in your camper.

Poison is great as long as you have 6 weeks before you need to stay there....
