Wow! That's probably the nicest man made course I have seen yet, nice work for sure.. it really has a 1:1 scale look to it w/ all the little sculpted crevaces and everything, definetly a lot of hard work there, and I am sure a great big mess to sweep up, grinding foam w/ a flap wheel is effective but sure is messy. I thought the loads of rocks I am currently putting in my basement was pretty slick, haha. I am calling igt Exercise Equipment too as it has really been a workout lugging 50-300lb stones down into my basement. |

Looks Great SteveO You guys will have a lot of winter fun with it! Also, to all the folks lugging rocks indoors like we did at my buds house, rememeber to be heavy on the pesticide. Last year when we set the indoor course up we cleaned all rocks very well with a hot pressure washer so there should have been zero surviving black widow eggs. Fast forward to a year later and time to rearrange course due to bordom with lines. Moved about the third rock to the sensation of a big, upset black widow running up my arm past my gloves. Yeauuuck! Creepy enough that I could've missed it and it would have been up my sleeve? Well that was just the start because after moving a few more boulders (A lot more observant and carefully), we came across moms w/ eggs and or babies - at least 25 adults. This is in an 8 x 16 area in basement. It was sprayed three times with pesticede but not heavily enough I guess. Or maybe a fogger would've been more appropriate. Either way, USE HEAVY PESTICIDES unless it is outside of your home. Widows reproduce like crazy. Especially since most of these indoor basement courses are near our laundry machines. Easy for a widow or brown recluse to slip into your clean folded laundry. Then you or your kids have a terrible bite to deal with. Sorry for the long rant / advice, just suprised me how many widows can show up in one year, with pesticides. |

Wow, thats crazy w/ the spiders bud, i am glad i dont need to worry about that. Its a good thing those little eggs didnt hatch or there would have been literally like half a million of them in that tiny space! I washed most of the rocks off w/ the hose (warm day on last load), and the load before that was all river/streambed rock so it was clean, in moving water most of the year. Others were frozen under snow in a rockpile, i was more worried about being attacked by a varmit. I live in NY so no worries about black widows, though there is plenty of spiders in my basement, nothing venomous (besides the Common House spider, which actually has some of the deadliest venom in the world but not large enough fangs to penetrate human skin, nor volume enough to kill a person, i let them live because they eat a ton of smaller bugs)
