Guys, you know the stuff. It comes in a tube or an aerosol can, and is applied to the underside of fan belts to keep them from slipping. Real sticky stuff, for sure. Well, I discovered two NEW uses for it that worked great for me! One day as I was entering my work-shop, I felt something bump me. I knew right away it was the =91owners=92 of the small wasps nest that I had let stay over the door. The bugsters would occasionally give me their 'warning' by bumping me. I kinda felt SPECIAL that they didn't stinging me, what with them being as big as cockroaches and all. For a second, I even thought they were my FRIENDS! So I felt sorry for the little buggers and let them stay. Big mistake. As I exited that day, one really got me good. Right on the inside of the elbow. End of tolerance. End of wasp nest. Three weeks later though, here they come again. Same spot. On the wooden lintel right smack in the middle of the door. There was just something about that place that they liked and I couldn't think of a way to make them leave for good. I went for the poison but it was all dried up. The only thing in reach was my can of Belt-StickemI grabbed that and let them have it! It did the job on them alright. But unknowingly, some ended up on the wood. And they never came back there again! Didn't like the sticky stuff! And you know what...? It STAYS sticky. For a friggin` year.
The other problem it solved was keeping the ants and other crawly creatures out of my well-pump pressure switch! Anybody who has an outdoor well with and outdoor pressure switch knows just how much of a nuance they can become. You're in the middle of your shower, and suddenly.... no more water! Kewl!!! Outside you storm, dripping wet with your pants on backwards, just knowing what you're going to find when you lift that cover! And sure as hell, that's just what you see! A daisy-chain of electrocuted bull-ants, with a few sandwiched right between your pressure points! Melted metal. Fried. Twenty three dollars down the proverbial drain. But that's where the old miracle cure comes in! You simply apply the Belt Stickem liberally to the underside of the points platform (taking care not to allow any to enter the electrical covering itself). And then a few times up and down the spindle, and then a shot or two to the =91in=92 and =91out=92 exterior wire harnesses. I guarantee you that your ant problem will disappear! They just DO NOT like the sticky stuff! Can't deal with it. Never could, actually. You just didn=92t know about it then. That=92s all.
