RVers use blinking LED lights under their rigs to keep the rodents away. I hear it works most of the time, but it must be a headache and a half to endure that. Maybe cat urine from your litter box? Spread it around your tires. I understand its not only food the mice are attracted to, they like to gnaw on the wiring of your vehicle too. Something about the smell of the plastic coating that calls to them

Hmmm............ hadn't noticed..........

chipmunks and SQUIRRELS will do the same. Squirrels chewed through Christmas lights I had in the front yard on some candy canes I made, and some large rodent also chewed up huge sections of the wiring under a camper I had years ago - enough that sections were missing and I had to run totally new wiring.
