When preparing for a recent trip, I had the pleasure of confronting a non-poisionous 5 foot snake who decided it would be warm and toasty inside of my rig. It has since gone to snake heaven. At the first campground, I found that five small mice had set up their own camp in our pots and pan drawer. They too have gone to their respective heaven.
Since I live in Texas where toting a firearm is in the American spirit, I could sit outside the rig and work on improving my shot to kill ratio, but I'd prefer something less labor intensive. Does anyone have any FULL PROOF suggestions on how to keep mice and snakes and like critters out of a rig when it's parked for awhile? |

When you mean.... "parked for awhile," are you living in it, or is it in storage? If it's in storage, you must remove all the food. Someone told me this tip. When I get home from a trip, I remove ALL food.
On the other hand, if you are living in it, don't know what to tell you. I once had the pleasure of seeing a snake wrapped around my sewer hose........ This was in June in South Central Washington (which is a desert area....). JJ -------------------- JJ from Pacific Northwest
