Any advice to keep pests out... especially mice.

+2, I keep them in anytime it is covered, keeps out red wasps real well along with rats/mice and any other vermin.

I put mine in a qt. ziploc storage container (square snap top type). cut large vent holes in the sides and top, slits.

I did the same thing except I think I used a lunch meat container. Works well and moth balls last a long time.

A friend of mine who was an exterminator told me that nothing likes mothballs, so I would think they would work pretty well.
