I agree with not leaving food out for the critters. An old cowboy taught me the trick of leaving an uncapped bottle of ammonia in my vehicle while backpacking. I'm either lucky or it works, because I've never had a problem.

That might work but how does your rig smell after your return and how many days does it take air it out? :)

I've found the ammonia fumes dissapate immediately, even after being inside a locked car for four days. No noticeable smell afterwards.
