Mice

I just visited my coach, which in an outside storage facility. I noticed one of the tire covers looks like it was chewed by mice. Is there something I can do to keep mice away? thanks in advace

We had a mouse problem last year. Ended up putting mothballs in a plastic food box with holes punched in the top on top of each tire. That was last year and no problem since.

Irish Spring soap works. We store our outside year round in an open field and have no problems.

This.... moth balls.. other than that poison, bucket of water with slip rod and bait. Some say the fake snakes and owl work but I'm a skeptic.

I use cotton balls soaked with peppermint oil (Now essential oils on amazon). Been using it in stored cars for years, no critters. Also in my RV. Be sure to put a couple in the exhaust pipe extension. Pleasant smell in the spring.
