This wouldn't stop what happened to you because it was present tense. I'm glad you posted this because I was beginning to wonder if I am being overly cautious. Thanks to your post, I see I am not.
I keep about five
tanks with
juice in them on my mod stand. Being paranoid a insect of some sort might fly into the opening and possibly lodge itself in my coil, I keep a tiny wad of tissue where the drip tip goes when not in use.
