Take a look and learn from everything that goes on from our rural property in the upper midwest. Occasional topics of conversation thrown in from time to time. Self reliance and peace of mind are the goals.
Grew up in a farmhouse built in 1908. Never had a mouse problem thanks to Decon. Dad kept Decon in the crawl spaces. I have never had a dead mouse smell for three or four weeks. That is crazy. Two days top.
An electronic engineer at Emerson electric created a printed circuit grid through an optically activated solid state transformer through a NEON SIGN TRANSFORMER. ...POOF. Worked like a charm.
@@tlmtrudy3187 I don’t know if the way I did it was the best or not. I predrilled the spacers and then sank the screw through the cement board and into the spacers, so the screw was in just enough to hold the spacer, before applying it all to the wall. Took some careful measurements so I still hit the studs when I leaned it on the wall.
Hi, I would HIGHLY recommend you buy a carbon bed mat. Nothing beats grounding all night long. I have cured my mom and two other elderly relatives of arthritis with getting them set up sleeping on a fitted carbon bed mat and carbon pillow cover. Don't get the silver threaded products as they oxidize/corrode and lose conductivity from body oils and detergents.
Those wide pine shavings work really good, but it cost $20 here, and you need a second to sprinkle on top of poop 💩, I'm testing out hey right now, and no stench, it seems to be working. I designed and built my own coop, mine is a lot easier to clean, I can also stand up in mine, we have the same taste in color, I also put up a clean up video, that's where I put in hay to test.
You had me at...... {I'm trying to talk here), if not before!!! Just got here and did all the U-tubie things there are to do!!!!!!!!!😊👋♥♥♥♥ I LOVE the coop/run setup, but I would want larger run for mine, even when not needed, LOL!!! IF you want to keep the chickens/AKA their poop off of the nesting boxes, Run the lid at a little steeper of an angle to the wall and extend it over any flat surface present, and then make it slippery smooth, either by sanding and painting or by adding Formica or linoleum or tile, etc., so the chickens cannot land and/or STAY of the surface. You could add on a piece of the mesh you used for the inside or similar wire mesh, cut 2 pieces about 12 inches wide and the length of the separating partition of the mesh covered window/wall, attaching it about 9" up the wire from the wall and attach bottom to edge of wall, doing so on both sides of the coop. You could even use nail tacks and any kind of string zigging and zagging to and fro from tack thru the wire mesh in some kind of macramé or any way that the chickens can't or wouldn't want to land there, of course with can't land working the best!!!
