Fresh Cab is a peppermint rodent repellant. I used to put q Damp Rid tub in the camper too, but it really wasn't necessary once we found and fixed the leak in the window gasket. So far so good, but if mice were still bothering it I would set snap traps out. Congrats on your new camper!

This is exactly how we winterized ours, too. Perhaps you've even shared this before and that's where I found the instructions We DO have the Damp Rid in ours, but I don't think we'll need it. One of us goes to storage once a week and checks on our little egg...so far, so good!

When the lakes freeze over and you can drive on the ice then its winter.
When the ice comes off the lakes then its Summer
In my opinion California has Winter in name only .
Winter to me means below zero temperatures
