Good advice, Joe.  Besides food, rodents also seek water.  An air
conditioning unit that drips condensate water onto the ground will also
attract rodents.  One solution to that problem is to capture the condensate
before it hits the ground, and channel it 100 feet or so away from the
building in pipe.  Cover the open end with a stainless-steel scouring pad or
other means to keep bugs and other pests from crawling back up the pipe.

I used to have about 50 cellular sites that I maintained. One of the 
biggest rodent control solutions was to throw out all the trash cans at 
all the sites. That ended the problem of half eaten Big Macs and all 
other foodstuffs from being left at the site. That made a big dent in 
the rodent problem. With no place to throw out the garbage people 
usually took the trash with them.
