Rets338 and squirrel

Starting up our seasonal site. Everything is opened and good. Wife and I up for a couple days and when we goto bed last night we can hear the scurrying around and believe the booger is between the roof and the sub ceiling. Upon inspection it appears the paneling is held up with the cross strips and the corner molding. I'm guessing removing these carefully is my only option to get to it. Thoughts?

Buy another RV.


Once critters get in, you'll spend your life finding all the places they've gnawed holes, built nests and left their droppings....


If you want to keep your RV, you'll have to find and properly repair every hole they've made. Clean out every nest. Remove their droppings from every nook and cranny. Sanitize and deodorize every piece of fabric and wood.


Good luck with whichever path you choose.

IIRC the ceiling edges are actually on top of the wall.

Yep, I stopped by the dealership and talked with them. Too much of a hassle tearing it apart. Gonna try baiting and humane trap while we are gone for the week.
