Flea collar in refrigerator compartment?

Flea collar in reefer outside compartment as well as water heater compartment has kept darned wasps out of my RV for many years. Need to be changed yearly to remain effective.

Okay so.... In my house and TT I use an electronic rodent and bug deterrent. It emits a high pitched frequency that we can't hear and apparently neither can our dog. It supposedly emits the sound throughout the electrical system and is effective everywhere. I would say it was the biggest rip off except we live in south Florida right by the water and have NEVER had a bug or rodent problem in our house or trailer in the last 15 years no matter where we've camped. You decide... BTW/We didn't get any elephants either but didn't know that was even an option.

I never had any luck using flea collars to keep the fleas off of my dogs.

And, since the collars are designed for pet fleas how do you know it will deter wasps ?

By using that logic you should be able to wear one yourself to keep mosquitoes away from you. (And elephants too. )

The same chemical in flea collars was used in the old Shell pest strips. if I remember right it is a form of nerve gas.

I have to say that I was very skeptical when the tech suggested the flea collar in the refrigerator compartment. It's probably a bit like chicken soup - it can't hurt. I did not put any screens over the refrigerator louvers in my old camper and I didn't have any problems (lucky). So, unless anyone can give me a reason not to put screens in the louvers I am going to put them in.

My flea collar experience,, Have not had wasps yet,, But I did have a spider take up residence in the gas outlet for the refrigerator propane port.. It would not light,, I could smell propane.
Took it apart and sprayed compressed air through there,, A small web and tiny spider got blown out.. Works great now!

This goes back to about 2004 or 2006 on RV.net. I went to AK in 2006 I think, need to look at the pictures again to be sure. Anyway, I had a spider build web in, what I remember, was the water heater. I cleaned it out and from suggestions at that time and put used dog flea collars into all of my exterior places that have LP associated with them ever since. One TT, one class A and one class C.

I have NEVER had a spider problem since. I will take that further and say no bug problems around LP loving critters on outside.

Used flea collars for years in gas compartments. No insects of any kind. Cut long collars in 2 or 3 pcs and distribute them.

I tried the flea collar, and got wasps. Then I tried about 3 moth balls (more at first, but the smell went to the interior!) and got wasps again. No dice here.
