Read this is You have an Outdoor Kitchen

Not sure how many other units are like mine, but it is worth a check. Behind the outdoor fridge there are two vents into the trailer presumably to vent the fridge heat when the kitchen is closed. The inside of the vents have an circular vent cover similar to the heat vents. I noticed there as no screening on the vents or the 5" holes in the exterior walls. This allow insects to enter the trailer when the kitchen is open. I will be removing the vent covers and adding a small circular screen.

I actually added more screening in behind the outside kitchen drawers. There is several points where the bugs can travel into the living area from the outdoor kitchen. They get into the furnace compartment and can come out threw the furnace grill. I screened that as well. No complaints from DW since I finished.
