Fresh produce
Usually, fruits and vegetables, or at least most of them, are stored in the fridge. What happens to bananas and avocados, for example? You might see it as a good idea to put them in a fruit basket above the fridge. However, according to Edwards, “putting them on top of the fridge can speed deterioration, making that basket of farmers-market goods a feast for pests like fruit flies.”
Not to mention that if a fruit or vegetable falls behind the fridge, it could take quite some time before you discover it, rotten and all. Fruits and vegetables should be kept on the counter or in the pantry.

thanks for the info. I have made a quick change.
I have never seen a refrigerator with any vents on the top of the refrigerator. They are in the back.
