Just brought our first caravan, its oldish, but in good condition, and we have done a bit or work to it to make it "ours" stereo, new cupboard handles, new curtains, and a good clean etc.

Have only one issue with the van.. the last owner took the bungs out of the inner window pane at some point (think it was his young children) and now theres a whole "host" of dead and dried bugs inside a couple of the windows (some are larger than the windows so i think they must have grown up in there.

I have tried everything I can think of short of high explosives, to clear them out, but to no avail  , has anyone has this experiance before and if so is there a way to remove them (I was thinking of drilling the holes out a bit so they are slightly bigger and then shake the windows and try to get them out that way)

Any suggestions very welcome.

Or if there is an entemologist who wants some samples for his lab he can have them if he can get me some bug free windows
