And... Success! Although the weather turned colder and the bugs might have been less active so I want to try a couple more nights. But it appears there is a good chance mosquitos can make it into the trailer via the access panels/vents on the exterior of the trailer where the fridge is located. Putting netting here probably adds more maintenance as one needs to regularly ensure there is no blockage of air flow. But I'm happy to pay that price if it means no more mosquitos!
If everything is still working great over the next couple of evenings, I'll post what I've done and what seems to have worked. I was getting frustrated as the tone in my last post might have made clear but I am really hopeful that it is possible to use the TrailManor in heavy mosquito areas.

Interesting. I say this because I'm fairly certain my fridge "cabinet" is fairly well sealed to the inside--I've never looked at it as a point of ingress to mosquitos. I'm going to need to keep an eye out if we ever suffer from the same!
Thanks for the information.
