Sledge
A cheap sledge from a diy store works wonders and makes de- poing the field easier a tub bucket fits on top and you can pull it easily round the field. Also when the ground is snowy you can put a full water bucket on it saves you carrying it . And lastly carry the feed from your car to the feed room let the sledge carry the weight.
Another use for the sledge is dragging water across. less back breaking less spillage
Zapper Mosquito/ wasp sting
is the new design of the revolutionary treatment that stops the urge to scratch and reduces the swelling.
ZapperClick is the new design of the revolutionary treatment 'Click Don't Scratch' that stops the urge to scratch and reduces the swelling. You carry the ZapperClick with you at all times and “zap” the bites, thanks to small impulses created by a piezo crystal.
The effect is that it inhibits the histamine build-up under the skin; this relieves the discomfort and urge to scratch, which in turn ensures that a bite doesn’t become inflamed or septic. Simply place on the bite zone and click 5-10 times. This reduces the irritation and stops you accidentally scratching the bite.
