Top ten ways to use up those leftover waxies...

10. Give them to your kids for an upcoming art project

9. Put them in the Jell-o when you have the in-laws over for dinner

8. Instead of a "flea circus", have a "waxie circus"

7. Try out the brand new hammer on 'em

6. Bring them to the local food shelf...Hey, it's protein!

5. For a good laugh, hide 'em under the sheets on the wife's side of the bed

4. Put in easter eggs for the upcoming hunt

3. Dry 'em out, string 'em up, and wear um

2. Bring to doctor, say "I keep finding these in my underwear"

1. Save 'em for next year

Or, you can hide them in your wife/kids pockets. As when they hatch they are great/nasty big black flys


Has anyone done this before? I had a cousin that did this without knowing it would happen. We opened up his tackle box and there was a dozen or so black flies buzzin, and I mean BUZZIN, in the little circular tray it came in.

Ugly big flies that's for sure!

captain, did it to one of my buddies my freshman year of college, hid two open containers of waxies under the futon in his room, he couldnt figure out why he had flies buzzing around in his room when it was -20 outside.

If you got big black flies, you didn't have waxworms, which are the larva of the bee moth. you had maggots!

First time I got eurolarva, I didn't know they were maggots, so when they turned brown and crispy, I thought they were dead, so i dumped them out of the container into the waste basket. Sure enough the house had a housefly invasion a week later!

Two quick ways to utilize your left over waxies...one, mix them in with some scrambled eggs you serve to a neighbor that drops in unexpectedly on a Saturday morning to borrow something. "Sure you can borrow my leaf blower! While your over here, why don't you join me for a quick breakfast?" "Me? Oh, no eggs for me, doctors orders,I'm on a diet, I'll just have toast!"

Two, blend them in with a batch of tampioca pudding and serve it to those special inlaws, as a special treat, for never having approved of you! Just don't tell anyone what the secret ingredient is that gives the pudding it's exotic taste! grin.gif

    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
    • Chef boyardee pizza from the box!
