We purchased our Pullman in August and is in storage in our garage. I have heard of an incident where mice decided to make it their home for the winter. Has anyone heard of similar incidents or should i be buying a mousetrap.
Also any advice about winter storage would be greatly appreciated.

A couple of mouse traps set with peanut or peanut butter is always a good idea mouse traps are cheaper than canvas and although it is a rare occurance its better safe than sorry. I still set traps in my caravan as well

I`d put a couple of trays (about the size of butter carton lids) of rodent killer around the back and under the trailer (out the way of kids). Count the pellets onto the tray maybe twenty on each then check regularly. If some disapear you know you`ve got/had uninvited guests. Top the trays up again & when the pellets stop going you know the pests are history

If the mices can get into the garage I'm sure they would find a nice Pullman like the Savoy Hotel lol.

I find a trap set with hampster food superglued to the trap works wonders, and if they are in there they love the food.
