Seriuosly, they are a major problem up there. You really don't want them in your campervan, they're bloody difficult to get rid of. After spending a sleepless night trying to catch them, then having them scuttling all over us (there were several!), we had to clear out all of our food, park next to some skanky looking hippies and go on a massive walk whilst the mice jumped ship! I know, I know,but we got our karma 'cos our clutch went on the way down and we had to spend four days in Greymouth!
Keas are easy enough, just don't leave anything lying around. They're easy enough to scare off.
