Don't forget the holding tank vent....it, along with a gas grill venturi, is a favorite mud dauber "home." The good news is mud daubers are only a problem in the spring...yellow jackets live underground and only come out in late summer and fall and they're aggressive! Meat tenderizer is the best treatment for yellow jacket stings..wet the sting, shake some on the sting and rub it in. I used to keep it a bottle of it with the first aid stuff on my boat...during raft-ups close to shore it stayed in the air going from boat to boat.

I changed my hooded holding tank vent over to a mushroom type. Much less enticing and easier to keep clean.
