Closing up mobile home for summer

[Bruce]

I am a new owner of a mobile home in Florida. It will only be used in the winter months. What do I need to know, and do about closing it up for the summer months? I am most concerned about keeping insects out. Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

you should have gotten an owners manual with the home, which gives you all the pointers you need. If you did not get that manual, contact the manufacturer and ask for a duplicate. Also, be aware as far as bugs and such, there are a lot of natural repellants like lavendar, eucaluptus and such that you can duse to keep bugs out.'
