I bought the screens for the frig vents, water heater and the furnace, kind of pricey but I now know that it was money well spent.   Goose]]> Tue, 02 Jul 2013 00:04:36 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=35183#35183 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=35137#35137 Author: Seanl

Hopefully you have metal screen covers over your utility vents.  I noticed a wasp crawling through the lower frig vent. I cut and glued screen material inside the vents. Putting screens on does cut the air flow for the frig...but it was either that or having to get rid of wasp nests in the frig space.

yep same thing happened to me 2 weeks ago. also we were heading out for a one nighter last week and a sparrow had built a nest in my spare tire cover. I saw leaves hanging down and started to remove the leaves and on no, yuck, I broke the eggs.]]> Fri, 21 Jun 2013 22:12:57 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=34689#34689 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=34573#34573 Author: furpod

No wasps yet, but last year I didn't get the velcro just right after turning off.. birds nest was my reward.. and all the crap they used for their nest is still stuck to the inside of the felt lined cover.. ]]> Wed, 19 Jun 2013 15:44:10 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=34573#34573 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=34567#34567 Author: Goose

No, it is just cosmetic.  My cover flew off on the highway a few years ago.  I retrieved it but never put it back on.]]> Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:55:04 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=34555#34555 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=34552#34552 Author: JCMoran

In an effort to avoid being the main entertainment for the neighborhood, is there any real reason for covering the LPG tank?

I don't believe you had the guts to say that!

My cover is full of them quite often.  I'm always careful turning the propane on and off.]]> Tue, 18 Jun 2013 09:39:49 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=34489#34489 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=34477#34477 Author: Seanl

Yesterday I decided to take the propane tank off my Pod and take it into be refilled. I started to remove the cover and suddenly I am surrounded by a swarm of wasps. It appears that they had built a nest under the propane tank cover. I was not stung but I am sure the neighbors thought it was funny to see me running across my front lawn waving my hands like a crazy person. Broke out my Bee and Wasp insecticide and sprayed the nest down. No more wasps.  ]]> Tue, 18 Jun 2013 08:07:26 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3631&PID=34477#34477
