No, I don't think so. I read all your posts, and you guys are anything but rude. Way nicer than I am...  And just so I'm not hijacking this thread, we keep our lights on- yes, kinda bright- til we go to bed. We usually keep a front-porch night lite on all night, but very dim.

So ... TLDR. I actually did read through these posts for about an hour but I'm running short on time. I have a question about these LED lights. Someone may have already asked so my apologies if this is a repeat. If so, feel free to lambast me at will.
I will be boondocking in Arizona next fall. I wasn't remotely concerned about critters until this thread, I've camped all over the west and never had that issue but that was tent camping. I would like to use these LED light strings to keep the critters away but first would like to know ... is there a particular color that does the trick but is less infuriating to humans? I don't want to upset anyone, I just don't want critters in my TT I have paid so much and cared so much for. I have used ultrasonic rodent repellants going on 30 years and in my experience they do the trick just fine, but that is inside a dwelling, not outside.
Yes, I will be triple-checking the undercarriage and sealing what I can seal beforehand. That is probably the best suggestion, but one can never be too safe when it comes to rodents and similar critters.
TIA!

We've been staying in Arizona during the late winter, for the past 5 years. Never had any critter or rodent problems. So we prefer the dark to being lit up like an airport runway.

You think people put up too many lights at their campsite, you ought to see some of their trucks----

Sounds like HLAM syndrome.
