Any idea on how to repair this?? That is the furthest back wall in the TT, not sure if I should put some sort of quick drying sealant and push the wall inward while it sets or fill the gap? My wife is terrified of snakes, and believes one will make its way in. Thank you!

Wood screws and sealant is what I’d try to do it with.
Went to the deer lease years ago with a buddy. In his TT, on the floor, was a really long shed snakeskin. Gave us both the creeps, though he was the only one using that TT. No snakeskins in my TT.
Not my monkeys, not my circus...

I'd leave it alone if it keeps the wife from going to the lease.

I was thinking about shoving some styrofoam as well, but not sure if that’ll separate it more

Flex seal? Glue it back would be the easiest.

I had a lot of work done on my old RV. He would have removed the siding on the outside and repaired or replaced the plywood. That’s probably water damage and rot.
Cast I have a short attention spa

Well cut up a pool noodle and shove some of that crap down there. We’ll see the results as time goes on
