I’m a new tub owner here. We have a partially recessed hot tub in a concrete vault with excellent drainage, plenty of access space on all sides, and removable cedar decking on top. We called the exterminator to spray for ants and somebody suggested asking if he could do anything to deter/prevent mice and rodents from taking up inside the cabinet, particularly with winter coming.
Short of dryer sheets, does anyone have any good ideas or experience with this? And does frequency of use have anything to do with whether or not the cabinet is an attractive nesting place for them? We use the tub daily and I at least plan to continue doing so even after the weather turns.
Any horror stories about rodents taking residence?
