Houseboat Damage - any repellents to protect of Mice, Rats, Mouse, Rodents

Houseboat problems with mouse, rats, mice, rodents ....

When it comes to houseboat damage protection, is there any repellents to protect from mice, rats, mouse, or rodents on boats?

I was curious if anyone has any good mice repellents they use during winter storage? I never have had a problem during storage until this year. All the food is removed but am afraid they will start ripping into the furniture looking for bedding.

I have heard that "Bounce" dryer sheets work but am a little skeptical. If anyone had any ideas, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Tim from Iowa
