This was an actual infestation. They were pooled up in a line in the crack between the front step and the ground. Around an inch thick, and two feet wide. Then off to the side of the same part of the trailer there looked to be a hole or some other opening between the bottom of the structure and the ground, and it was bulging with the creatures. They were swarming all over the entry and every other part of this one section of the structure, but were "normal" (present, but not swarming) around the rest of it. INSIDE the trailer, in the room at the top of that specific set of steps, there were what looked to be hundreds of them dying, or already dead, on the floor, and crawling up the walls.

When we left they were on our clothing and in our hair. It was pretty bizarre.
