stock up on toilet paper or ammo?

[baboon]

Y'all realize washing your hands under warm running water without soap for 40-60 seconds will work?

I almost feel bad about my trip thru walmart last night laughing at the wuhan retards fighting over cheap toilet paper they wouldn't dare buy or use any other time.

Almost.

It was almost as fun as going people watching at a mall on Christmas eve.

I'm glad I resisted the urge to tell those guys discussing weather denatured alcohol could be used as sanatizer to hurry up and get some before everyone else realizes there is some left. I mean, It would have been a complete waste not to see their reaction. Plus, seriously, I guess I don't want anyone to get sick on account of a stupid joke and depending on what's added to it they could absorb enough to get sick or have kids.

But come on, can they be that stupid and desperate? And the soap isle was still full of dial bar soap and did soap.

They all had a smart phone and still were trying to talk themselves into trying it.

Oh ya, walmart is temporarily suspending the 24 hour stores from being open past midnight. Their people can't even stock the shelves with out getting mobbed.

Soap just helps a little, but the act of rubbing hands under water is the key.
Anti-bacterial soap would be a little extra beneficial.

People need to remember that not all hand sanitizer is antiviral. Alcohol free is definitely not as effective, but anything is probably better than nothing.

Tea tree oil is antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antifungal and antiviral. Pure tea tree oil is best.

Tea tree oil mixed with a little olive oil kills super lice. Probably suffocates them more likely but still 2 treatments a week apart will do the job and for a few bucks.

But in a survival situation you don't want to kill lice. It's an important source of protien.

Mint is also antiviral.

My wife and I have noticed not many are buying produce. We have gardens and try to grow our own supply of fruit and vegetables. This does not always work out. Fruit and vegetables can be stored in many ways. Vegetables can be blanched and frozen to lock in their nutritional benefits since boiling makes them a good bit. Fruit can also be frozen. Fruit and vegetables can be dehydrated. We also can fruit, vegetables and meat. I can take little credit as she has done most of the research and does much of the work. I try to help. We raise muscovy ducks which are great for eggs as well as their meat. They are very lean and the males have the most meat. If meat is not a large portion, a duck can be more than one meal for a family. Their eggs are about 1.5x that of chicken eggs. Sometimes, they are even double yoke.

Silver & honey both are anti bacterial

Don’t forget silver is good against vampires too.

Colloidial silver is good stuff. Have not used a lot of it.

We do have bee hives also. Lots of benefits.

Alum - antibacterial, astringent, can be used for water purification, natural deodorant, etc.

Is aluminum what is in most deodorants that is known to clog pores and possibly cause cancer?

Looks like alum is more stable and is not absorbed as aluminum is.

A UV light wand, of the right spectrum, will kill bacteria and viruses in about 10 seconds. One that is used for surface or water sanitization can easily take the place of hand sanatizer if needed. But you gotta have it first.

Is there a point to stocking up on ammo? Are you going to the range? Are you expecting to get into several fire fights?

If you only plan to use 5 gallons of gas in a week, do you still fill your fuel tank?

Tea tree oil, mixed with water and put in spray bottle is a very effective flea killer for dogs or cats. You can also mix a little with their shampoo.

And it only takes a little bit to work.

UV-C the highest frequency will kill virus' and bacteria. It would have to be pretty damn bright to kill in 10 seconds though...

If you have to make a choice choose ammo because with that you can commandeer toilet paper.

I was lucky enough to buy a decent bit of ammo last month when Academy had a sale and I thought the prices were too good to pass up.

For toilet paper, I went to CVS and bought a pack of gum. The receipt should get me by for a week or so.

If it costs you$3.00 a box (50 or 100) rds., you're doing something wrong.

Primer - $0.03
Powder - $0.011
Boolit - $0.015

$0.056 per round. $2.80/50

If you can do it cheaper I'm all ears.

Bulk buying may save some.

So basically for a survival situation, your reco becomes a recipe!

Super Lice
Cook in olive oil
Drizzle with tea tree oil
Salt and pepper to taste

In a pinch you could use a dollar.
