Janesy's life tip of the day.

When you fire up the wood stove for the first time each year. Make sure you fill the cast kettle with water...

More importantly, make sure there is not a big mouse nest in the kettle when you put it on the stove!

Lol! I’ve been waging war (outdoors) with the mouse population all year. I finally made a couple of those bucket traps where the mouse climbs a stick up to a 5 gallon bucket and peanut butter is smeared on a water bottle that spins on a metal wire. They try to get to the peanut butter and end up rolling off the bottle into a few inches of water which they can’t jump out of. The little buggers expire in the water!
Pretty neat invention!

I pitched the kettle. I didn't fill the kettle until the stove was roaring pretty good. Forgot about it.
By the time I added water I had burnt the nest a bit.
That was some stink! No way that kettle is getting cleaned out.

If your in a cold climate where the water would freeze,use antifreeze and if you leave the mice for a few days they won’t stink!
