Squirrel Problem

Anyone have a problem with squirrels getting into the under belly of your camper? I have a fusion 342 and they are getting in somewhere and then up into the front storage compartment. I have looked everywhere and cant see where they are getting in from. The best I can figure is there may be an opening in the back close to where the gas tanks are however am unable to get a good look up into it.

I'd check the openings around your front landing jacks, near the propane tank compartment and underneath around the wheel wells. Squirrels can "leap" so they don't need something to climb up on.

Any holes you find can be filled using a combination of bronze wool (it won't rust) and expanding spray foam insulation.

Check around your pin-box. That is where those furry little tree rats try to get into my Cougar. ARRRRRRRRR!!!!! They also like to sneak in from the bottom of propane compartments!!!!!! Good luck, Hank
