friggin gnats

i am getting a large amount (100's) of dead gnats in my fridge.
it is empty of all food and has had the interior wiped clean a couple of times.
it is running and at 38*, freezer @ 2*.

they are right in the door on the ledge in a big dead pile.
it is the residential fridge if it matters.
i did look at the manual for a drip tray or sumpthin that could be holding juice but did not see one.
any ideas on where or what to look for?

It sounds like you are not currently using your camper. If it's not being used for camping at the moment, get yourself 3 or 4 bug bombs and set them off inside the camper. Turn on the AC fans and let the AC suck some of that bug bomb stuff through the vents so it will penetrate everything. In about 10 days, repeat the bug bombs, only this time, turn the fan on for the furnace and let it suck the chemical through the floor ducts and pump some in your underbelly. Wait a few hours and then go in sweep up all the dead bugs. You won't have bugs any more inside the camper.

Repeat again in a year. And then once more a year after that. You will never have bugs again inside the camper as the bug bomb chemical will penetrate every nook and cranny where nasty pests can enter. It works!

You can go to Dollar General and get the Raid 4 pack (small cans) and set all 4 off inside the camper at the same time. Dollar General has the best prices and the product is exactly the same that you'll pay top dollar for somewhere else.
