Official Squatch Watchers

[Molpet]

OMG I am loving this!!!! Thank you FNF!!! It doesn't look like it would help with the deeply imbedded urine smells, but it would help with other things.... gonna go look at more stuff.

PS. Stanley Steemer doesn't come out every time we've had a pet accident..... I call them when I can smell the urine.... we could be accident free from our last SS visit... but I will be able to start smelling the old urine around now... so out would come SS..... which is why we're just gonna have to bite the bullet and replace the carpeting.

as a kid we raised ST Bernards, whelped in the house. I tried to get the smell out 20 yrs later. Sanded, Stained and sealed the wood floors. Still smelled, one day I was in the basement and looked up at the floor joists. Yep the pee had gone all the way through. I gave up.

He was always a nice guy. Now he gets so short of breath walking around. I think dementia is taking him over as well.

so sorry that is so hard on all

Thanks for the hugs, and yes, I plan on doing very little today. In fact, I'm only up cuz the phone rang and then the people hung up. It's back to bed with me.

to everyone. See y'all after noon.

Morning squatchers. Somebody get me some food, I forgot lunch. Found this delightful thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/derperella-the-weird-faverolles-friends.563302/
A little old, but really funny.

Omg, that's just sticks! 100 bucks for some sticks! I'm thinking they'd just poop on it so 100 stick toilet. Thanks for the vaccum link, that's actually affordable. Neighbor lady said to get a dyson lol! Yeah, as soon as I pay off the Lamborghini.

Right? If I had enough $$ to buy a dyson I'd probably use it to buy shirts that fit. Even the next higher models are under $100 & have really good reviews if you're interested. I much prefer the bagless versions AND this one has a washable filter so you don't have to buy replacements. You just rinse it off & dry. My old one had a filter I had to change & I hated buying them so I'd just a butter knife to dig the dust out of the grooves.

@apryl29 @Smuvers Farm If you use the ozone generator and have mice or bugs in the house -- mice will flee with the smell it makes. It's not instant death if you breath the ozone in. You'd be uncomfortable breathing and think "I should get out of here" before you died. The bugs....may kill them but how big are your bugs that they would rot and smell? If you have bugs that large you have bigger problems.

And yes you could build the activity center yourself. Yes they will poop all over it. They poop on everything.

Ohhhh.. I thought you meant instant death. Is it kind of like the thinner air at higher elevations thing? That'd be a great way to exterminate w/o chemicals though. I wonder if it would kill fleas.

if that would kill fleas it would be worth it

It's my understanding ozone kills everything. Or drives it far far away. I will ask Mr. Wizard questions and get back to you all.
If you have any questions for Mr. Wizard please let me know. I'll be glad to ask.

I saw this at TSC the other day: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/coops-feathers-chicken-activity-center-for-6-chickens
Part of me thinks: Who would pay $100 for that? another part thinks: I could build that. & another thinks: I wonder if they'd even use it, or just poop all over it.

$100???
Definitely make it myself for cheaper. It actually looks like a brilliant idea, for my setup though. I might do something similar this spring.

Please ask him when my shoulder area is going to heal/stop bothering me.
Thanks.
