Milkweed container
Has anyone dialed in on the best way to carry your milkweed around/ have it easily accessible?

Re: Milkweed container
Those rubber oval shaped coin pouches with the slit in it. Holds a bunch, fits in your pocket, makes no noise. Not sure if it’s the best way, but it works. They usually come with a little chain. Ditch that thing, replace it with a loop made of chalk line string and you can loop it right to your tree harness for easy access.

I just put the pod in my pocket and keep a handful in my pack.

Re: Milkweed container
Completely stole the idea from Muddy, but take a pill bottle and drill a hole in the lid with a drill bit. Pack a bunch of milkweed in the bottle, put lid on, put drill bit in by hand and spin a few times and pull it out. The idea is a self feeding milkweed contain and seemed to work pretty good.

Re: Milkweed container
Thanks for all the tips! I like the coin purse and hooking it right to your harness ideas.

Been running with the same idea for several years. Works great. If you take an old 1/4" drill bit and grind the tip to a point the bit will tend to melt it's way thru the plastic container and prevent cracking.

X3 Works great. Compact, quiet, and cheap. You can fit a ton of milkweed in it. I think I ordered three at one time for next to nothing.

I’m at that point to. It’s a pain in the but stuffing fluff into a container. Then all heck breaks loose when you sneeze.
A cheap pill bottle works great as well. No need to over think this stuff

Re: Milkweed container
I ordered a pack of 5 small containers from amazon a couple weeks ago for $1 shipped.
Waiting for them to come off slow boat across the ocean.
