Our dogs are frequently getting into skunks. One of the local old timers said the best way to get rid of the skunk smell was to shoot the dog and bury him deep. Sounds a little harsh to me.

dmcdonald, My bees are in the remnants of a horse stall with roof and plywood back wall with open front and sides with the horses just on the other side of the plywood. We ride past them, the bees,...

Hey scsasdsa, Great idea. I think I will put one in our sun room. That would also be great for the grandkids to watch. Now to convince the wife I need to bore a hole thru the sunroom wooden...
