    Yes please - a real & growing problem. As a woman who works in the woods, I feel there's additional risk for us from needing to 'go' when outdoors with the amount of exposed skin. Staying completely covered all day when working is pretty much impossible as it gets so sweaty and uncomfortable, and then at the end of the day if I change my clothes, I worry that it undoes all the protection I've given myself through the day, as the skin gets exposed again anyway as I change clothes. Very tricky - tips welcome.

    As a hunter in Nebraska, ticks are my mortal enemies. I swear, every time I put down a tarp in the woods and have a rest, an army of them descend upon me, thirsting for my blood. I think the most I e dealt with in a day was thirty, both on me and coming for me across the tarp like a pack of rabid bloodhounds. Up in the Black Hills though, I never see any.

    The "original" Settlers Wrench sold by Shawn with the Wild is exactly the same as the Weyland bushcraft Settlers Tool. Shawn recommended the 1" size as the most useful.

    there's no need of the side hole if you put the log up on end on 2-3 sticks or rocks. There's no need of big logs or splitting of them. Just shave the wetness off of 4 logs, on 1 side, Assemble the bundle with t he shaved sides toward the bundle's center and stuff the empty center with dry shavings. ignite one end of the shavings and wave the log around, mostly horizontaly, with GLOVES or mud, etc, to protect your hands, until there is flames coming out of both ends of the bunde. then stand the bundle on end on the rocks or sticks.

    Foxglove is beloved in many detective novels as the leaves can mistaken for sage by the ignorant (or simply murderous playing ignorant) and fed to people, if you have a weak heart you are more likely to die. Ragwort is also or those with an alcoholic/heavy drinking partner/parent/enemy you want rid of. Tincture of Ragwort (which is allegedly undetectable if placed in food or drink on a regular basis) will end up killing them as t reacts with the alcohol to give them liver failure,and DON'T mistake deadly nightshade berries for black currents either and include them in a jar of ''jam''... (Thanks to Agatha Christie among others for their accurate knowledge of natural poisons and their effects on the unfortunate victims) EDIT: those purple flowers at 12.14, you can also pull out the individual flowers and suck the nectar out of them as you can with honeysuckle or nasturtium flowers, we used to do it as kids and while there isn't as much as in the bigger nasturtiums there is still enough to taste.
