Default winter storage

HI All,
I have stored my car at an indoor storage unit location for +/-6 months.
What should I have done for winter maintenance to avoid critters and such and 6 months without the engine running or battery charging?
What are some of your storage prep for your car going into long term storage?
I put gas stabilizer into the tank but nothing else was done.
