Mouse Proof !

Wouldn't it be nice if Keystone could mouse proof all of their RV's? I am sure they could if the engineers designed that feature into them. I think all it would take is for a design engineer & family to be camping in one of them and have a mouse enter the unit. I would love to hear what the engineer's spouse had to say!

I don't know if you could ever mouse proof them, but it would help if they would drill smaller holes in the floor when installing gas and electric lines. They drill holes so large you can see them from space... I went thru and foamed all the holes that I could get to, and still had a couple mice vacationing during the winter. they were there until they went to the fast food joint that I put under the sink.vacation over..

I don't think you could mouseproof anything.

Agree, they can get in just about anywhere.

The only way we were able to mouse proof any of our stick and brick homes is when our daughter got a kitten. Despite the best of intentions, they always find a way to get in.

Over the years I've seen them defeat the best efforts of everyone including professionals. The best example was in the 90's when they chewed thru an metal rear restaurant door. The door was metal clad. Somehow they bent and chewed the metal, chewed out the wood middle and then again did in the inside metal. We replaced with a solid metal door and haven't had a recurrence, but lots of poison strategically placed is the only thing that's work both at home and at work.

Well, so far so good, whenever we are not using the Monty, we now put a sonic "thingy" in each outlet, use dryer sheets everywhere and use Fresh Cab. Probably shouldn't post this, but here goes............
