VAN RENOVATION: A MOUSE IN THE HOUSE
Van life pests are the worst threat for damaging wires. I need to figure this out for the new build. I had company at the shop last weekend and they helped me finish up the demolition of the van. I am ready for GOAT 2.0

Your videos of success and oops are so reassuring. Thanks for taking me as a client. Looking forward to see what you do with your van!!
Hey Jonnie! 😊 Thanks for sharing the deconstruction of your van because it answered so many questions; especially the use of Havelock wool and the concerns of settling. I’m so excited to learn more from you!
I'm so excited for all the new ideas!!
Nothing like a good demo😄😄
That havelock wool really did settle. I hope you found a better way to keep it in place. Live and learn… right. 😊😊
The possible settling of wool is why I used Thinsulate.
Oh no! I hate dealing with mice. We went years and years without one in the house, then this past year we had two! UGH! We also had a squirrel eat some wires under the hood of our hummer. That has never happened to us. Not sure what's up with animals these days. The demo part is probably the quickest part, but I don't think it's the fun part. I was too anxious to get to the building. Didn't have the patience for even a quick demo lol. Glad there was no nest under your cabinet area. Bonfire! Turn up the music and grab a beer! lol. Only 10 til 8. Maybe time change threw you off. Wow. She's pretty stripped down. Looking forward to see your re-build.
So, for folks who are going to be using Havelock wool, what recommendations would you have for them now that you have seen how the wool has settled? I'm looking forward to seeing the new build❤
Oh no! Nice with a sweet tooth 😮
It takes a special kind of courage to destroy your van and start from scratch. But it takes exceptional integrity to show the world your mistakes. Bravo!
Those yellow crocs help you work faster! 😂
I’m so excited for you!
I bet all my havelock wool is scootin downwards too 🤦🏼♀️
What fun and excitement Jonnie 😃😁🫶💎
How would I get in touch with you in the spring, you do amazing work.
What a great opportunity to see what you did great & what you’ve learned over time! Hoping you figured out the varmints’ access point. Can’t wait to see the finished, new & improved van! 😊
The fact that you’ve learned so much along the way I KNOW your remodel is going to be amazing!!! I’m excited to see.
It was fun working on your van Jonnie.
A new re-build..how exciting! Cant wait to see your new design. ❤🌻😊
Wow Mary is quite the worker. When she is ready she will be doing a lot of the work herself.
❤
Are you still putting in a shower in the remodel?
What is the year and make and model of your van? I have never seen it. Oh, and the wheelbase?
Are you going to re-use your galley?
Your van is going to be so much warmer this winter!!!
Replay–I'm so excited to see what you will do with your van!
I like how Les said, let's start cutting so I could start priming. Lol
Oh no, I am so lucky I have never had a rodent inside my van but you might remember one chewed up my wiring for my backup camera. I am sure you won't have anymore little critters. you are an awesome van builder. I have styroboard insulation. It doesn't insulate very well. I just love all your helpers too. If I had anyplace else to live while doing it, I would seriously think about redoing my van build but it is working so I am not really unhappy.
Haha… Ya' get to get one of those "No Riders" signs for your windshield! !.
👍 Rock on 🌞.
Gotta make a mess, before ya make it purty.
One guest you don't want to get too comfortable!! A mouse.
I had a mouse in my house too, at the end of my trip. Picked up the little hitch hiker I think after Yellowstone. The weather started to turn cold and I was boon docking. He seems to have found his way out as I haven't seen any signs of him.
