I spread some moth ***** under the bike during the storage season and it keeps the critters away.

Several years ago my Triumph ran like crap so I brought it to an indy shop. He found mice nests in both air cleaner boxes and recommended putting moth ***** under the bike.

Worked.

Until you come out and find cat prints (or scratches) on the bike. Not to mention if putty-tat just had to sharpen his/her claws on the seat.

One thing you definately want to check, is all the wiring harnesses and wires from the fuse box and battery. Mice can create electrical shorts better than anything I've seen.
