My DW decided to do some "deep" cleaning and said that she saw something under the slide out pantry. Well, I was amazed at what I found.  The only trouble is you have to be a contortionist with 6 ft arms to reach everywhere.  I was able to get it all with tape on a stick, the vacuum and plain luck.
Needless to say, DW did some reorganizing.

Tim,
Everybody wants to "look" at your thread, but nobody wants to comment. I know they can relate, just don't know what to say! We've all been there.....we do a LOF on the Journey every couple of months or so. We have to, as with the S&B, it starts to accumulate. Purge, baby, purge. We do lots of donations! Stuff, stuff and more stuff. As one of the audio tapes I have says...."just let it go"!  Later, my friend...rockin'

Tom,
Please excuse my ignorance but what is "LOF" & "S&B"?  You lost me on that one.
I would like to see the pantry come with the ability to extend out after moving a lock of some sort. I'm all bruised from shoving my arm in and twisting it. I couldn't believe how hard it was to get the open bag of Skittles out of there. I didn't want it to become a feeding ground for the critters. There's got to be an easier way.
Tim

LOF = Lube, oil and filter (auto talk for house cleaning)
S&B = Stick and Brick (what you used to live in)
I thought you, being the ol' military guy, would know all these acronyms!!
Hugs to Miss Rosie !!

Tim,
All I found under mine last weekend was a bag of instant potatoes. I'd rather find a bag of Skittles (or Snickers).

Ed,
I'd would have liked the Skittles but only 1/2 stayed in the bag. The rest were all over the floor. I'm still not sure I got them all. Next time we move I'll look again to check for more.
We've added spring bars across the opening to help prevent things from "leaping" out again. I don't want the critters to find "Food Heaven" there.  For now it seems clean.
Tim

I just saw an ant poking around the bottom of my pantry. Solution - ant traps.
