Don't have a lot of crap. Rent a storage unit to store stuff you can't seem to part with.
sprinkle cinnamon around your baseboards and the outside of your rv, also peppermint oil or spearmint oil in your cupboards or where you dont want ants. more permanent solution, depending on the type of ant. Mix 1/2 C sugar, 1 1/2 Tbsp Borax, and 1.5 C warm water. soak cotton balls ants will take this back to nest and it will kill the nest. if you have ants that like protein use peanut butter instead of sugar and dont use cotton balls. these are techniques i use to keep ants out of my bee hives
Buy things that have dual purposes. Cut down on space use by getting things like collapsable multi use bowls,dishes pots & pans,buckets here's one example https://www.amazon.com/Gourmia-GCP9935-1qt-Collapsible-Pot/dp/B077B43CCT/ref=asc_df_B077B43CCT/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=242009928898&hvpos=1o3&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2659129678789044319&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9030040&hvtargid=pla-445145885173&psc=1 here's more https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Dsporting&field-keywords=collapsable+dishes use storage bags for linens clothes and bedding Vacuum storage bags https://www.amazon.com/Vacuum-Storage-Travel-Excellent-Traveling/dp/B015QO8H1S/ref=asc_df_B015QO8H1S/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=216553642992&hvpos=1o2&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10999793066621681569&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9030040&hvtargid=pla-385275156858&psc=1 Keep dry goods in a zip lock baggies instead of boxes they come in,roll them up tightly and put rubber band around then stack in cupboard. Flatten round paper towel rolls,toilet paper instead of storing round. remove any toiletries from packaging it takes up less space,& buy only what you need.
