    Never had a problem with a vehicle left outside, as soon as it's garaged, then the problems start! Pickup was in the garage all summer and a mouse took up residence and wouldn't take no for an answer. Set traps, sticky and snaptraps, no luck. Tried various repellants, nope. Kept building nests under the driver seat and I kept removing them, what a mess. Finally, one day I go out to do the usual clean-up and here my little furry friend is dead in one of the snaptraps with a litter of 7 dead little pups all around her! No wonder she was so insistant. And of course, I felt bad...but I got over it, I don't think she did.

    Sue,

    Last year I got tapped with an $800 repair bill on the RV due to a/some mice. They chewed through a wire harness and one of the O2 sensor cables.

    I keep an ultra sonic pest repeller plugged in under the RV at all times now. I even found a good use for that switched outlet behind the TV ... there's another repeller plugged in there.

    AFAIK - not a single mouse since. Still worries me though when I see the squirrels hanging around the RV but they are just playing mind games with me & actually live in the tree next to the RV.

    The ultra sonic pest repellers are available on line or at Lowes & Home Depot.
