Thank You so much for your wisdom about taking care of your RV. I am just starting over at 78 after a 40 year not camping. I feel like a kid just starting out. I am going to Ariz. and Florida for two months. I am going to try to put all your tips to work. Thanks Again.Eugene Nardin

In reply to LLOYD MILLER. I don't have an average. When on a road trip, my stays might be 1-2 days. When at a destination, I might stay 4-5 days. When I go to FL, I stay 3-4 months.

Lloyd;
I haven’t had issues with mice or critters when I’m camping. Other than my winter stay in FL, I don’t do a lot of stay put camping. I do carry a string of solar powered LED lights, but use them as accent lights on my campsite.

I see Jeff’s email above about his use of the lights. Have you had any similar issues while camping or boondocking and if so what was your method of deterance.?

While camping at Usery near Mesa AZ a critter set up housekeeping in our engine compartment. Other campers swear the LEDs on the ground keep them at bay. We now set out solar powered LED strings and have not had another issue.

Thanks for the great advice!
