Just wondered what methods we all use to keep food "out of bounds" to our furry hoodlums
-and also how to prevent your tent / pack etc from getting extra acess holes chewed into em.....
I tend to not eat in my tent ( or have food in there at all) but i will cook in the vestibule in cruddy weather...
I have stored food in snaploc bags inside a food onlt drybag - some items rehydrating overnight in a Stainless steel wide neck bottles (i use eco tanka s but any non-plastic lined S.S. bottle woulda done the job - they were just there when i had the $ at the time, but i find them really good) - non plastic lined so i can boil water in them if i had to....
i have also heard that a very light wipe around the outside of the waterproof floor at ground level with deep heat / dencorub can stop rodents..... (and tom cats spraying if you ever need it btw).....
please specify if it is a method you have tested or just heard about.
i have hearsd that if you thread a few maccas straws onto the line each side of a food bag strung up between trees makes it much harder for rats etc to climb to the food as the straws mspin and act like a log roll in a river.... (havnt really tested that one yet)
i have heard of fold-flat light plastic boxes but can't find em as yet....
happy munching!
