Carrying milkweed

Unread postby Jmoore » Tue Nov 28, 2017 5:47 am

I searched and couldn’t find it, I’m sure it’s there but how do you carry milkweed with you on hunts? It doesn’t seem user friendly to leave it in a ziplock bag, there must be a better way....

Old school 35 mm film canister. Works great.

Walgreens pill container and stealth strips just cause it looks cooler. Stuff with milkweed and drill a couple holes on top and bottom. I fit probably 6-7 pods in mine and it will last me a couple seasons. Didn't make a dent this year in it.

Probably similar to the mint container but I use a Mentos gum container.

I have an old school coin purse zip tied to my bow riser.
As good of an idea as sliced bread I swear.

I also use rubber coin purses but lately have just been carrying them in my pocket right in the pod that mother nature provides.

I also use an old pill container. Seems to work well and I don't need to worry about poking holes in a plastic bag

The rubber coin purse works awesome. I also pick just plain pods and carry them but always have the coin purse for when pods arent available.

Tried a few ways. This works best for me, sometimes I'll throw a rubber band around it once I split it open.

This is the way to go! I have been using a sandwich bag. I don't see a reason to stealth strip a can of some sort. Gonna have to steal from the wife.

I'm using a dental floss container. Works pretty well.
