I got this second hand kettle, 50L SS with tap all for free
As it was used for oil/fat storage previous to my getting it, i gave it a good clean out and a test boil. As i was bringing it to boil (outside on the BBQ) i noticed this little bug crawling around, i just assumed it crawled on from the BBQ or something. However after about 10 min of heating, over 10 of these fuckers were crawling all over my pot. I decided to go over it again with some steel wool and noticed there were bugs under some of the handles and attachments.
Now im wondering how to exterminate these buggers. I was thinking of:
Burning them out, little bit of kerosene and controlled burning of tucked away spots, then more cleaning away.
Soaking the kettle, not sure what to soak it in but just put the effected bits in a bug killing solution. Maybe bleach? or hot water. not too sure.
Any suggestions?
P.s. these guys!
