If you need to cover the vents. try covering them in a fine gauze or muslin so the bugs can't get in, but the air still circulates.

You can try some of those plug-in things that emit a high pitched sound. *shrugs* I was told they're supposed to drive bugs away. You can probably find them at your local hardware store or wal-mart
