Ants and similar pests in any RV.
I can't stress enough that keeping your floors clean of any kind of food matter is imperative. My mother came from Arizona to my place here in the NW. We have seen all time record breaking temps here ...

The little 'sugar ants' in my driveway love climbing the extension cord I use when parked there and plugged into shore power.
There is no food in my camper to attract them.
- Ortho 'ant dust' works ok until it rains and washes away. It takes a while for the ants to carry it back to their nest.
- I've often thought about setting up a bucket of water where the extension cord would dangle from the camper and drop right into the center of a bucket filled with water in hopes of blocking them from invading my camper. I'm thinking a standard 5gal pail would do it.
- I almost never put the jack stands down so their only two paths are the extension cord and climbing up a tire and navigating the truck assembly to get in.
