Bug Management

Curious how y'all minimize bugs in your camper while in storage and while on extended trips.

Beside the obvious window/door screens, we've got Irish Springs to deter mice (they apparently hate the smell) and ant traps. Anything else we should be thinking about in terms of sprays or repellants.

We're from the Northeast, so our biggest concerns is random creepy crawlies in other parts of the country that we're just not familiar with.

Thanks in advance!

I'm in Colorado, we don't really have bugs - but Permethrin sprayed on fabrics is pretty effective against bugs for a while iirc - don't people put it on their pant legs to protect against ticks and chiggers?

Check toxicity against any pets (like cats) that might get exposed though
