Here in Oklahoma we have insects we call "Mud Daubers" (look like wasps) that tend to close off most any openings they encounter with mud which dries to a good seal. Unfortunately, the holes most often closed are ones best left open such as ventilation for motors, furnace flues, and on and on but antennas are sometimes targeted.

I do not put caps on any of my antenna elements or booms. I have never had

What about spiders and other assorted bugs?
