Filling small holes in ceiling

Hey, what should I use to fill some screw holes in my MH ceiling? I moved the smoke detector (which was blocking the wardrobe door from completely opening) and I'm not sure what to use to fill the old holes. White bathroom-type silicone caulk? Something else?
  • Along similar line I'm curious about source of cover plates. At some point I may remove roof manual satellite dish and replace it with another solar panel. I'd be more inclined to do it if I could cover up the interior holes in a way that looks reasonable. Or I suppose I could just leave the hardware in place and remove the antenna from the roof.
  • Get some small pan head screws, paint the heads white and after drying simply screw them into the holes. They will practically disappear in the ceiling.
