Asphalt or concrete are good surfaces to park your rigs on - mice and pack rats don't like to expose themselves crossing wide open clean spaces to get into your rig.

That's the other reason for not using Tom Cat or other poisons. We have a couple dogs and the woods, or what's left after the jerk in back of us illegally cleared his lot, is teaming with wildlife from deer to coyotes, turkeys foxes, fishers and even a black bear once. I wont use sticky pads or drowning buckets either as it's inhumane. If I have to 'dispose' of rodents, a trap or Zapper is instantaneous.
Parking on asphalt doesn't help my situation as the RV is parked half on it and half on a crushed stone area 5 months a year. The only fix is to seal the belly which I thought I had. Oh well.
