Several years ago, we spent a week boondocking in a remote and beautiful spot near Canyonlands National Park in southern Utah. We were sitting in the RV one night with the lights down low, when we thought we spotted something moving up near the driver's seat.
Sure enough, a little field mouse had gotten on board.
We'd never had a mouse on the RV before, so we didn't keep any mousetraps around. Even if we had been anywhere near a store, they'd already be closed this late at night. But we were eager to catch him before he could do any damage, so we had to figure out how to make a mousetrap with items we had around the RV.
Here's a re-creation of the exact method we used to make a homemade (humane, no-kill) mousetrap and get the little rodent off our RV.
The piano music is my own performance of Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag from 1899.
