[QUOTE="Allen, post: 306966, member: 389"] Mothballs do work pretty well for me, but I still put out traps and glue boards. The problem with all the smelly stuff is that in the heart of winter, the VOCs in the smelly stuff aren't really that volatile, so the smell isn't nearly as effective. Nor are the glueboards in -30 degree temps. Another problem when using mothballs is that they tend to bleed into carpet, bedding, or any other fabric. This makes the camper a headache (literally) causing SOB the next spring. In order to minimize this, I always make sure to put mothballs on paper plates and that seems to work. Note, I also put the mouse traps on paper plates, nothing like a dead mouse to eff up the carpet or make a hard to clean stain on the hard floor. [/QUOTE]
