Default Rodent Deterrent?

I opened up my trailer today and found a live mouse in the cockpit.
Naturally, there was a lot of mouse poop in the cockpit and in the
trailer. I had made at least one mistake of leaving a good supply of
crackers and granola bars in the cockpit and up front in the trailer.
Little bugger had a great home, complete with large food supply.

Tomorrow, the glider will get its annual condition inspection and I'll
be looking closely at tubing and wiring. I don't know if I'll have a
chance to do a leak check tomorrow on the system, but I will soon. My
quick look today didn't show any teeth marks.

Does anyone know a deterrent to rodents? How can I keep them out of
the trailer? The trailer stays parked outside, unfortunately. Would
moth balls work if placed in both the trailer and the cockpit?

Thanks,
