Truly the voice and wisdom of experience.I have a system:
- carefully clean the threads
- replace the cap
- place tube in Ziploc bag
- roll air out of bag and seal
- place in fridge
- wait
- remove from fridge
- dispose of responsibly
To be sure it is a stupid system, but it's mine and I love it uncritically.
Oh Zonker, I see a youtube video and an abused tomcat in your future...I just use duct tape. Or electrical tape. And a long screw to plug the end. It's easier to remove the hardened plug of caulking that forms around the screw if you just pull it straight out.
I typically get many months out of Sika 291 or Lifecaulk. 3M products - not so much.

Great for parties. Tell your friend that you can't give your cat birth control pills but you have these. Bit of a struggle to get them on...

gateway pets...My middle daughter was lobbying for a ferret for a long time. We "compromised" on a mouse...Now she's Guinea Pig curious.
Put it in a big freezer ziploc or wrap in Saran - keeps the smell transfer right down.I use a mix of the above. Squeeze fresh. Plug w screw. Wrap with aluminum duct tape. Put in bottom veg bin in fridge. Keeps over a year. The carrots complain but i invite them to learn how to share. Family complains too same answer.
Tasty, too.Fleetwood said:Guinea pigs are excellent pets for kids. They don'ttake up much space, don't eat much or do much else, don't mind being picked up and don't live very long.
