Default Rodents in Boats

How does the rodents get inside the boat? If the boat is kept high
above ground on a trailer, rodents should have a hard time getting
inside, right? Even I have a problem climbing on board of my boat
from the step of the trailer. I am not saying that this won't happen;
I am asking this because I have a boat on a trailer and I don't want
any rodents to live inside and damage my boat.

Any idea?

We have a pest control guy service an old, 208 year old farmhouse we own
once a year to keep it from becoming home for little field mice that come in
from in the surrounding land/horse paddocks.

He told me that field mice can climb virtually anything and can also squeeze
themselves through an opening as small as the diameter of a pencil.

Oh, good God, the resident idiot claims that there's no field mice
where he lives because there's raccoons and foxes!!! And he claims he
lives next to corn fields. Corn fields are the best habitat in the
world for field mice!




A. Raccoons eat small mammals, though it is not their favorite diet.

B. Foxes eat small mammals, including rodents.

C. Hawks and owls eat small mammals, including rodents.

D. I never ever claimed I lived *next* to a corn field,
schitt-for-brains. I do live *near* several corn fields. I realize that
as a high school dropout, your facility with language is...limited.
There is a difference in meaning between *next* and *near*, and the
difference is not subtle.

E. There are a few feral cats in the area, though I rarely see them. I
suspect they are good mousers, too.
