He knows your closing-day routine better than you do. He's only worried about one thing.
Every fall I watch the same thing.
You drain the lines. You cover the vents. You stuff steel wool in the gaps by the door.
Good job on the door, honestly. I'm not using the door.
Then you lock up and drive away.
Six months. No footsteps. Warm cushions.
That's not a camper, pal. That's a vacation home.

RV Mouse Repellent Pouches
Peppermint, cinnamon and castor oil in a mineral base

See the RV packsWhat He Doesn't Like Walking Into
"There's one thing I can't stand. Those little tan bags. Peppermint. Cinnamon. Ugh. Some mineral stuff, not even corn cob."
(In plain words: three plant oils, peppermint, cinnamon and castor, in a mineral base. A repellent, not a killer. It puts a strong scent where you place it, and mice don't like to settle where that smell is.)

"The trap under the sink? I'll walk around it. Nobody's coming to check it till April. The peppermint cotton ball on your counter? Cute. I don't come in through the counter."
What's Inside Each Pouch
-
Peppermint oil
-
Cinnamon oil
-
Castor oil, a plant-based oil that rounds out the blend
-
A mineral base instead of corn cob.
Corn cob is food. A mineral base isn't.
What RV Owners Say About Their Closing-Day Fixes
"Dryer sheets work fantastic. I haven't had a mouse one in my RV since I've been using them. By the way, driver sheets are a lot cheaper and work great"
"I like to prevent access and have covered every opening I can find. Problem is I can't find them as well as the rodents!"
"The only thing I noticed that has worked has been mothballs, Irish spring soap bars and dryer sheets"
Why It Isn't Your Fault
Most of the fixes we all use were made for a house, where somebody's home every day to check them.
A stored rig has nobody home.
And the gap that matters is usually one you can't even see.
A mouse can fit through a hole the width of a pencil.
Why a Pouch by the Gap Is Different
"See, you sealed everything you could reach. I don't need everything. I need one gap. Under that skirt, where you can't get to."
(Which is why the pouch goes there: under the skirt, the wet bay, the bays, the back of the cabinets. Seal what you can. Cover what you can't.)
START MY RV PROTECTION PLANUse as Directed
Put a pouch by each spot you can't seal. Keep them out of reach of kids and pets.
There's a pack sized for each rig, so you don't have to guess how many.
The Mistake He's Counting On
"Lock up without putting anything by the gaps you can't reach. That's all I need."
START MY RV PROTECTION PLANThe Smell
You'll notice it when you open a cabinet. That's the point.
If the smell inside your rig bothers you, put the pouches in the bays and the spots you don't sit near.
How to Tell It's Ours
Look for the kraft bag and the white sachets with FUGELYN printed on them.
If a bag looks like another brand's, it isn't ours.
Your Closing Day, Step by Step
-
Check it. Flashlight, walk the skirt, look for anything chewed.
-
Seal it. Steel wool and foam in every gap you can reach.
-
Pouch it. One by each spot you can't seal.
-
Lock it.
What a Bad Winter Can Cost
One owner left this on our ad:
"Mice cost us 10,000.00 in repairs one winter. Over 400 bounce sheets. Sticky traps only work if we are able to access trailer through the snow banks, etc etc"
The smallest pack is $39.90.
90-Day Money-Back Guarantee
Counted from the day your order is delivered. If you're not happy, you get back what you paid.
You don't send used pouches back.
Why Now
You only close it up once.
It's a lot easier to get under the skirt now than with snow on the ground.
Two Kinds of Owners Are Reading This
The first swears by his dryer sheets. Keep them. These go in the spots a sheet can't sit.
The second has opened up in spring to a mess before. If that's you, it probably wasn't anything you did. Start with the spots you can't seal.
What If You Do Nothing?
"Then just leave a cotton ball on the counter, like always. I'll see you in April."
