I used the old fashion Mothballs on the 3 vans out on my friends farm and it seemed to help after I put them in.

ive had mice get fat from eating mothballs,.. ive recently discovered that dryer sheets work well and smell better too! mice used to love to crall up on top of my engine i put 2 dryer sheets -one on top of the radiator and one on top of the air cleaner, no sign of them since! i also put some in the interior in various places

I haven't had a problem as of yet. My van is stored in my businesses shop over the winter. And I know there are mice there, but so far one of those little devils hasn't made my van their home over the winter. It just takes one to do alot of damage so a few dryer sheets is really pretty cheap insurance
