Mice also like cheeze whiz but I have found peanut butter still works the best. I mostly use the old snap traps but have used the sticky pads from time to time. This year there are very few critters, or at least here and no sign of them. But for the most part we have not had much problems with them in the MH just in the garage.

Once the weather turns nice mice will probably move outside to their natural settings.

I have used the sonic rodent gadgets and as far as I am concerned they do not work. I have them in my storage unit out side the main house and they attract mice not repel them

I hate to use any type of yummy bait for critters, the bait will attract ant's and other insects.
I like the live traps with rat & mouse poison bait in it. the rat bait doesn't attract insects but the mice will go into the trap after it.
I have a few sorta like these.
I don't care about the humane aspect, there gonna die anyway!

I've heard people swear by traps fashioned from a five gallon bucket. At least those can handle a number of mice.

I'll show up if you spread a thin layer of PB between two thin hamburger patties before you grill them. Yum.

For three days I didn't see him, so I thought ok must have moved on. Last night of camping trip found the bugger sitting on top of stove. Went and got two traps and put pb on it and had him the next morning. Weather has nothing to do with mice getting in or not. It's all about a safe haven with a food supply. My only question about this whole thread is how does a squirrel get in a camper. I mean they are much larger than a mouse. You must have a pretty large opening for one to get in. First thing I would be doing is finding out how it got in. That would be a major concern for me.
