Check for notches cut into the seal for the bottom of the kitchen slide. Instead of using something to prevent the slide seal from being caught in the roller and keeping the seal intact, MS cut notches in it. This allows free flow critter, dirt, light and air circulation through the bottom of the slide in at least 3 places. I end up stuffing mine with rags at this time to stop this "feature". I'll graft on some additional seal material to close the "feature" in November or December when we are static for a couple months.
