More effective if the peanut butter/bait is smeared just along the edge of the disc so the mouse have to fully commit to get at it.
This version is unproven but looks quicker to make.

Growing Awesome Veggies! (easy)
The other day I left a comment on Troy's vid: "A Long Weekend At The Off Grid Camper" I was responding to the veggie box he was starting. I was inspired by a vid I saw earlier which showed incredible growth! So, I wanted to share it. My comment: You have an open mind on the subject so that puts he b...

Controlling Vermin!
Not the two legged vermin, that's a different thread. Nasty, disgusting mice! Destroying your food and stinking the place up! Plus disease, fleas and property damage!

When used as a pool the risk of it being chipped or damaged is nil, but when re-purposed, well you see what I mean. Now that I think about it the cinder blocks around the base plus STAKING it every few feet...

RV Exterior Improvments
I see you skirted your RV with an old pool wall and you've reported that your floor is no longer cold. Nice, you must be really pleased! Maybe a few carriage bolts and washers in strategic locations might help keep wind from pulling it away from the RV? I think ringing the ground around the base of ...
