Roadproof Rig: Pest‑Proofing RVs, Campers & Vans Without Harming Your Home‑On‑Wheels

You unzip the canvas of your camper and find nesting fluff behind a drawer or a trail of tiny ants around the kitchenette—this episode turns that roadside moment into a compact, safety‑first prevention plan. Mikey narrates a field-style case from a family RV stop: where technicians find repeat attractors in rigs (kitchen crumbs, sink condensate, stored firewood, exterior vents, and soft-side seams) and the common visitors that exploit mobile microclimates (sugar ants, pantry moths, drain flies, and rodents). Dana translates the clues into an inspection-first IPM playbook tailored to vehicles—check seals, manage storage, ventilate damp zones, and use mechanical exclusion that won’t void warranties or block vents. The DIY XTERMIGATOR Report offers three weekend actions you can do at a campsite or garage (secure food/storage, dry and ventilate wet areas, reversible gap sealing and passive monitoring) plus clear red flags for RV service centers or licensed pest pros. Listeners leave confident with one measurable, no-spray micro-check and a review-friendly CTA.
