@damselfly I mean cigarettes have been a bane for a long time.

@damselfly So now you reveal that you have a guest bedroom wallpapered with these visages...! 😉🤣

@LunarOrbit I had chickens a long time ago when I lived in the country. They were roosting in an old building with an open garage. I’d feel sorry for them when it got really cold and put them in a little side room and would get in there and sweep out the litter with a broom to clean it up for them on a regular basis in the winter. Had a warming light too. I would be doing that now without a wet bandanna on my face and then go take a shower after.

@cherokeepatti Yes. I had similar setup. Also used diatomaceous earth to keep the pests off them. That stuff is like talcum powder. It was hard on my lungs

@LunarOrbit You should have worn a mask with diatomaceous earth powder, it’s easy to inhale. Back when I was a child living on the farm my aunt would make a dust bath with wood stove ashes and DDT for the chickens. I used to watch them wallow in that and wiggle around. No mites to be found on those chickens.
