Kitchen stuff (2)

[Chamomile1]

Chamomile1, I bought large plastic containers at IKEE, though for other purposes. There are some that can fit a whole bag.

[vedmacck]

vedmacck, do they close well? We don't have Ikea. I was in Uuterra today, so all the containers are not closed tightly, just on the sides with a bracket. Not like regular food.

They close tightly enough. Not vacuum, of course. But cat food does not dry out for a long time.

[Chamomile1]

Chamomile1, Ol, I may disappoint you, but mice gnaw plastic perfectly, a friend at the dacha stored cereals in 3 liter glass jars under plastic lids, they gnawed all the lids, I think they will cope with the containers

[selenа]

selenа, some mice even bite through tin lids on glass jars. My mother-in-law kept it in large enamel cisterns or hung it from the ceiling beams, despite having two good mouse-catchers.

even tin lids on glass jars bite through

Al,

[kseniya D]

kseniya D,
Leifheit has excellent foil dispensers

I have it, it is convenient for me, although I had to adapt at first, the only thing is that our film is very thin and very strongly glued, it is difficult to pull it out, the afolga is perfectly cut (there they are called containers on the website)

And who has such a thing?
Are such scissors generally convenient?

I have all the greens getting stuck in them somehow. I use them for the disposal of personal information papers.

Well, from the video it seemed to me that he did not really cut the greens

[Chamomile1]

Chamomile1Large enamel pans saved me in such a situation. With lids. The original ones were like yours: your own house, flour, cereals, a cat and suddenly mice.

Are such scissors generally convenient?

I don't like ... I cut it once or twice and ... I don't even remember where they are ... !!!

[Miranda]

Miranda, I have, it is not very convenient, although I just wanted them to be terribly simple, but they are clogged and ... are not needed in short :-) :-) :-) By the way, Teskom's cutter for greenery on a roller is also inconvenient: -): -): - )

I support scissors, pampering, sometimes I take out a bowl of soup to shred, so that the board does not get dirty, but it gets stuck in the scissors more, and the main disadvantage is that it's hard for my fingers, although my hands are trained

And I have highlighted simple scissors in the kitchen and they cut perfectly

[mowgli]

mowgli, give me a paw! I also have the most ordinary old-style scissors in the kitchen. I tried all sorts of different types of kitchens - the mustache is in the trash, they get dull quickly, and these mothers have been serving for several years

Tell me where to look for large plastic containers that close well, tightly.

Ol look what you found 🔗

Well, here, and when I wrote a few years ago that, in my opinion, scissors are garbage, many did not agree with me! I have several of them, from different manufacturers, but the difference is not noticeable. There are also a few others, for salad and tomatoes. By the way, we have a separate topic about them.

Larik, girls, for the first time I disagree with you: such scissors are very convenient for me, or rather, not for me, but for my husband. He instantly chicks all the greens with them.
When buying, there was a choice of 4 different companies, they chose the most "oak" ones, with rigid blades from Tescoma.
They are in business all the time. Only you need to cut it closer to the screw, too much effort is needed at the edge. And what gets hammered is immediately pushed out by the next cut.

[mowgli]

mowgli, Scarlett, girls, I completely agree with you, I have ordinary scissors in my kitchen.

[ShaKsA]

ShaKsA, thanks, I didn't think about simple enamel pots. I have a 4th floor in a 9th floor building. There were mice several years ago, then they poisoned them, probably, and now I noticed again. And they hang out in the fridge under the window, otherwise my Froska would have caught them long ago. In the winter I noticed that she was on guard in this corner. But mice are not fools, why should they crawl out to the cat, if the food is already full.

[Chamomile1]

Chamomile1, is it possible to protect your box with a metal mesh? The mouse is not a rat, it will not gnaw.
In general, there is also a biological method, here in our house the mice disappeared after the rats appeared. And how to get the rats out, this next question will be
And yes, I'm on the balcony in pans with lids I keep everything I need.

[Chamomile1]

Chamomile1, nothing behold you have a mouse! On the 4th floor!
Did you try to call the sanitary service? Or contact your management company about this? This is unsanitary conditions and a complete mess! Even here, despite the complete mess in the country, there is no such thing. (I also live in an old socket on the 4th floor) Horror!!!!!

and we have mice in the winter, and then on the floors, I'm on the 1st, it's cold for them, and on the 5th the neighbors catch all the time .. And in the spring they go to the fields

Well girls, you just put me into a stupor with your mice! I saw a cockroach in my apartment for the last time 20 years ago (after the old owners), and here hordes of mice are running around and instead of thinking about how to get them out, you are discussing some containers, nets, etc. Truth with this on a different topic ...

I also live on the 3rd floor and every year in the fall we have mice, since there are sheds in the yard. It gets cold in autumn and they move to their homes.

As far as I understand, the animals in the house still depend on the location of the house. At my work last year, a snake crawled to the dwelling. The house stands alone by the field where snakes appeared after the rains. I cannot imagine such a thing in my house in a nightmare. And hamsters sometimes enter the porches.

here hordes of mice are running around and instead of thinking about how to get them out, you are discussing some containers, nets, etc.

Rat mice are regularly poisoned, and their fertility has increased after the "bell" cars were replaced with garbage cans.

Chamomile1, don't you have a mouse! On the 4th floor!

On the 11th I settled down perfectly.

worms live in an environmentally friendly apple, and mice live in environmentally friendly houses ...

I don't know how you will react to my remark, but according to popular beliefs: a mouse in the house is an addition to the family! Checked on myself

[Zabava]

Zabava, well, that's if only grandchildren

mouse in the house to add to the family!

Mouse?

Grandchildren also count! We lived in the 9th floor. panel house, on the 4th floor, suddenly - a mouse was born, a year later they began to move, again a mouse, a daughter was born. Once my aunt complained that her daughter got a mouse. I tell her: wait for the addition, (and my daughter had problems) so soon she gave birth! Believe it or not!

Believe it or not!

This, probably, only in apartment buildings the sign works, and in a private house every autumn I suffer from mice, and the addition only if in a mouse family

[V-tina]

V-tina, I agree, in a private house this is not a sign, but a problem

This, probably, only in apartment buildings the omen works, and in a private house every autumn I suffer from mice, and the addition only if in a mouse family

agree! if we take into account the last year, then the addition was in the mouse family and huge!

worms live in an environmentally friendly apple, and mice live in environmentally friendly houses ...

And they eat ecologically delicious food in bags

Girls, have pity on those who through the thorns with great difficulty from the phone breaks into his favorite topic, hoping to stumble upon some new thread, and then all the mice and mice ... We have a topic for them with rats assigned.

Girls, I have on the topic.
The husband ordered to buy such a stick, with which the pancake dough is distributed over the pan (he is in charge of the pancakes in our house).
How is it called correctly and is there any peculiarities in it to choose the right one?

[Olga VB]

Olga VB, a dough dispenser for pancakes, it can be wooden and metal, wooden of various shapes, there is like a rake without cloves, but there are simple round sticks, it seems to me which one will take in hand first, and will get used to it

Thank you, Nadyush! I’ll go out loud and try
Are they generally sold separately or only in sets with pans and / or spatulas?
And which is better - just round or a rake?

About sticks - my husband made me a round one ... in the store they spread the dough so cleverly that I wanted to. But no matter how hard I tried, I never learned how to use it ...

[Olga VB]

Olga VB, Ol, separately with a spatula is in Tescom and I also saw in the Metro both wooden and metal

[Alim]

Alim, try this stick before rolling out the dough, soak it in water. So the dough from the past is washed off the length and the new does not stick, it should turn out that way. In general, the thing is convenient, I only do big blue ones.

How can this help you?

🔗

There is one, but for some reason I don't use it. I bought it from us for a long time, tried it and put it somewhere.

in a private house this is not a sign, but a problem

And what another!
Now mice, then rats and everyone strives to gnaw the floor!
Sleeping is completely impossible from the constant grinding of rodents' incisors on a tree!

in the 16th century, a house where there are no mice and cockroaches was not listed. So there is nothing to eat and the owners are not rich.

Mmmm .... what are we poor... anyway, most of us.
