Great to see you guys covering trapping! I honestly think it’s the most important step in preserving our hunting lands. Raccoons, skunks, and possums destroy more ground nests than anything else out there.

Good well informed video. Sure to help many people. I usually like the dirt under the bridge method over barn dirt due to contaminants though. Otherwise, good job 👍

I oven bake mine at 170° no steam, sure it takes longer...if the dirt is dry, where is the steam coming from, and with the low melting point, there should be no steam...not being a critical critic but I'm OCD about any sent what so ever, if I see stream, I freak out knowing there's sent...

Thing about old shed dirt is oil and other contaminates

Mine has a slight burnt smell. Should I still run it?

Faster to buy 90lb bags of silica sand to wax. beds nice and dry ready to wax as soon as you open the bag .
