Clean under the bump outs???

Clean under the bump outs???

Postby CrowdedCamperMom » Fri Nov 15, 2013 9:32 am

My kids stuffed an entire box of spaghetti noodles, 1 at a time, under the bump out in the kitchen when I was walking the dogs behind the camper. I LOVE my kids.

How do you clean under that crack? We broke a glass a while ago and I'm sure some of that and other goodies are under there too.
Thanks!!!

That's funny. I've put some quail scent on toilet paper and flushed it during a tank drain. It was comical watching the dogs try to track it and it disappeared down into the ground. I suppose a few stationary noodles would be easier.

I love it!! That's a hard one...probably take both you and MM, one holding carpet up, the other with a flashlight picking pieces out. Don't know how your slides come in, but mine tilt back a smidge before they start coming in, after you get as much as you can out, try just bumping it a bit and see if you can get some more out. At least pasta is dry and will crumble...other than that, go with Vickie's suggestion, send in the retreiver! :lol:

There is a tool called a pick up tool that you can find at Walmart and other stores normally in automotive department or home improvement department http://www.walmart.com/ip/Coastal-Pet-Products-Adjustable-Figure-Cat-Harness/15860167 is an example of one. You can find them cheaper and they are great for reaching into tight spaces. (note: it looks the wrong URL but it works....)

One 2nd thought. Heartland product so it should be similar to mine.
Bump outs = slides? If you start to pull the slide in, the front will lift to unlock and then you should be able to see the outside under the slide if you get down on the floor or if you get under the slide you should be able to see in. From the point, a vacuum or some compressed air should do the trick.
