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

WinkHopefully 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.

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.. Cry

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.

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