Water Cooler 5 gal tank for home

So I found one and while breaking it apart I get to the Styrofoam that goes over the stainless steel tank, I remove the Styrofoam and 15 - 20 roaches are living in there, good thing they were cold moved slow... and I hope I killed most of them!

I always heard they like styrofoam. Thankfully that has not happened to me yet. Great reason to keep scrap out of your living space.

that's the Circle of Life!

Varmints seem to think my scrap is their home. Raccoons, badgers, skunks, and sometimes rats the size of a small football are my partners playmates. I have also come across a den of coyote pups. My partners are two labs that are responsible for the vermin. They like to fight the coons, pester the badgers, warn the skunks, and believe the rats are fair game. Needless to say none of my scrap makes it inside the house, shop, shed, or barn.

Some may carry a fly swatter or bug spray in their scrapping tool box while I carry shotguns, pistols, and rifles. The labs do not care about bugs so I am on my own with them.

The barn clean-out that I have talked about before had many mouse nests in all those printers, too many to count. Biggest surprise was a foot long milk snake in one of the monitors. Tossed him to the crows. Ever since, printer and monitors tore down outside.

My chickens stay close to me when I'm breaking stuff down, because of the roaches that may fall lol.

I have seen scrap yard dogs and scrap yard cats but now I need to see scrap yard chickens!
