Wood glider outdoor storage
Mice are nearly as much of a hazard as moisture. Even if completely protected from moisture if you don’t exclude mice completely they will ruin aircraft

Shouldn't make aircraft out of edibles. Or gnawables. No beavers in Moriarty, but we do have mice. And snakes. I hang my glider from the ceiling. So far, it's worked fine |

Even inedible metal can be ruined by mice. I have an Ercoupe wing in my shop with career ending corrosion on the main spar due to urine saturation from long term mouse nesting.

But Mark your glider is made of genuinely inedible plastic. I thought the roof hanging bit was to give double use to a large slab of hangar floor?

Yes, that's one purpose. But hanging it also discourages the snakes. And the mice have to work harder. |
