Mice
Chuck- I had a couple this year, also. I believe mine came in thru a hole in
the floor where some pipes run. I have since corrected the problem.

I am working in Qingdao China for the next month and all
I can think about in my free time is that I found mice in the
coach a week before I left. I set traps and caught 5 of
the little sob's before I left. The question is, how did they
get in?

On their little mouse feet.

Rodents are able to squeeze through incredibly small cracks/holes (or
even an open doorway). It's important to thoroughly seal any cracks
or openings to keep mice from squeezing through ... of course, they
can also chew through any chewable material, making their own holes.

In my home, I pack steel wool into any gaps or cracks, for example
where plumbing enters the house before sealing with caulk or other
chewable material. I'd use the stainless steel 'chore boy' type
scrubbers on a Wanderlodge as ordinary steel wool rusts rather
rapidly if contacted by water -- more likely in a vehicle than a
home. Also make sure that compartments, door, and windows seal
tightly and that there are no gaps in the rubber where a critter can
creep through. Even the smallest gap can be exploited.
