If I'm not vaping any of what you just listed by accident I'll report back tonight haha just kidding! I haven't got a chance to try due to work. It's a good thing I went outside to check the mail when I did the box was completely soaked (rain) and the bag was a bit muddy but thankfully the rayon was untouched! Thanks again @PapawBrett

 

[PapawBrett]

Using her as a human shield i hope.

More like the other way around... naturally.

You trust your wife with a shovel? HRH cannot be trusted with the remote control for the tv.

i suppose if it all goes horribly wrong, it's a cheap funeral.

Testing the rayon now. I think may have gotten lucky on my first attempt. It seems to be wicking correctly, no apparent issues so far. I'm not noticing any difference compared to cotton yet!

 

[PapawBrett]

Good Morning Reonauts. @Vapefiend , people who have used Rayon have mentioned that there is no "wet T-shirt taste" that they claim to get what cotton.
Cleared out maybe half of the junk pile known as the garage yesterday evening, and found no evidence of another snake. Later today I will be going under the house with Snake-Away and mouse poison.
Seems like killing a snake involves a lot more than just a spade.

Have a Safe and Blessed Day

What kind of snakes? Hopefully non poisonous, as they could aid in the mouse problem, unless they are getting into the house, they might be a good thing.

Copperhead. They are poisonous, but not deadly to humans. I am told that they would make you wish that you are dead, their venom is that powerful. Supposedly, the baby copperhead is the worst. They are less than a foot long, and do not know yet how much venom to inject with their bite. So they just inject all they have. Not a pretty picture.

yep, you be careful under there !

 

[oplholik]

Yep, good to get rid of those. I sure wouldn't want to go under a house after one. I've dealt with side winders, and a couple of Diamond Backs in the desert before, fortunately tho, out in the open. It was just a matter of relocating them a ways away.

In my youth I was hired to rid a rental cabin of snakes. They were 1st noticed when a guest from the city retrieved a cooking pot from a stack above the kitchen cabinets & snakes rained on her. It was bad for business so I was paid well.

Every day for a month I'd go in & throw a few snakes in a deep pail, carry them into the woods & dump them out. It wasn't until on old timer mentioned that they were returning & that I needed to chop them that the problem was solved.

NO


NO


NOOOOO.


That would be the end of me for sure.


NO.

 

[supertrunker]

i'm from where there are no deadly snakes or spiders, so i have a healthy respect for the ones here and i do my utmost to not antagonise or interfere with either.

Would i get under a house to catch one, hell no! i like the freedom to be able to run like the clappers if i have to. Besides, suppose the snake was dieting on rats or such?
Full chain mail armour and i'd consider it.

We once stayed in a cabin on the bayou in Louisiana. It was on stilts over water and featured a pet alligator below it. Part of the morning ritual was to throw 2 scoops of "gator chow" from a bin into the water for Baby Huey. On the third morning, I sleepily reached to scoop some food and there in the bin (thankfully far less startled than I was) sat a water moccasin. As I slowly backed away, I noticed a note taped to the side of the bin that said "bang bin - critters" and it was in that moment that I realized just how much of a babe in the swamp I was.

I have a lot of respect for people who live with things like this in their daily lives. Up here, things that can kill you are large and obvious (bears, moose, soccer moms in SUV's).

Australia has the highest concentration of nasties and basically, everything is out to kill you. Snakes, spiders, marine life.
Let's face it - you'd not sentence people to transportation if you thought it was better than where you live yourself.

They are much like human Aussies though. Generally laid back and gentle.

Sure, lots of stuff could kill you if it wanted to. Sitting here on the couch I no doubt have a few choice spiders in this room. They don't make a habit of it though.

Not the Aussies that come here to work the ski hills. Mad buggers, the lot of them. If they were spiders, a few of them would bite for sure (while in their cups, mind).

Just had a chance to catch up on this thread! Lions, tigers and bears, oh my, hahaha! Biggest critters I've seen so far this year have been mosquitos. Lots and lots of them since we had some great rain this year. But they pail in comparison to the mountain lion that came to our back sliding door last summer and looked in. We had just gotten home from work and were settling into dinner when he/she strolled down our steps. The funny part is that only one of our 3 dogs noticed as they were busy chewing on bones....except for one of them. Yep, the 7 lb poodle, looked up and kindly asked our neighbor to move on. Hahaha. Hoping that we have put enough dent in our drought this year to keep our friend satiated with food and water a bit higher up in the hills.

Hoping you are all swell. Love me some Reonauts and this thread.

And IMHO @Vapefiend, more is better with cello. That's all I've. Used for the last long while. Also, if anyone would like to try some KGD, just message me. I'll share.
