I asked an rv dealer about the same issue. He said its all part of nature and people need to expect it. Well....if that's whats to be expected the TT would have been back on Craigslist real fast. Obviously I didn't agree and started looking closer at the TT. There were several places that were poorly sealed. The shore power cord is a ladder that welcomes anything to come on in. There was a huge hole in the box that the cable gets shoved into. I sealed where the cord comes out of the box and all the edges. On the outside I cut a piece of sponge with a slit in it to fit in the plastic cavity that the power cord goes through. When I pull the cord out I place the sponge around the cord and in the plastic cavity. I used foam in a can to seal everything then I used the fumigant cans inside.
We have had no issues with spiders or anything else and my wife can spot a paint drip at 50 yards. There were a couple mosquito's because of going in and out the door but that's normal.
Look around everything and assume everything is open. Look inside the compartments and water heater and furnace, vent stacks that end up allowing entrance to the interior. I used a can of foam on a 24 foot Jayco TT and I consider this unit to be very well built.
