You suck it to stop your breath smelling.

[+Bear and Ragged]

Or, if it's a cache your looking for

 

It's a micro container.

Bit like the things dental floss comes in.

Its this but usually painted or camo-ed.

And the slip of paper in it is usually soaking wet!

I have 1 breath strip near my workplace that has been around 6 months and is out in the open...and it has had its log only replaced once only.Maybe I'm lucky.They aren't my preferred type,especially as they're 90p

and I hate the contents.But they are good for attaching magnetically to the "usual" surfaces and objects.

Railings,signs,phone boxes and photo booths.So they do have a place in our micro society.

Long Live the Micro.

I sealed mine with Silcone sealant before setting it.

 

Never had to change the log in it yet

So thats a 5 for Difficulty then

[+Gralorn]

Exactly, if it's sealed how do you log in??? Almost a 6* !!

Does this mean that halitosis is non-existent in the caching society?

 

And did Currykev just happen to have a pic of one of those containers on his 'puter? That's what I call dedication to our cause.

[+Moote]

you could use lightly oiled then dried paper

Note the picture is bigger than real size!

I'll have a dozen then.

 

But you may have trouble putting them in your hand luggage into UK.

 

"Security at all airports in the UK has been tightened and delays are reported. MI5 has raised the UK threat level to critical - the highest possible."...from the BBC website.

Just watching CNN's sensationalist coverage of it now, glad I'm not flying today!

[+Alibags]

or indeed flying back ever, by the looks of things!

[+rutson]

On a positive note.... could be good for Badger's numbers!

I used one of these for the first time a few weeks ago.

 

Within 12 hrs after I placed it, the FTF logged it with comment 'log was damp'.

 

Maybe I was unlucky.

I've used one of these to hold 'additional information' on one of my caches. It's located close to a river, has a tiny, laminated card inside and has been in place for about eighteen months with no problems what-so-ever. (Apart from the "I can't find it" sort)

[+FunLovingGeocacher]

Found one in Italy, they make good micros.

 

The one I found was magnetically attached to some rails

I belive people who dislike micros, but will go and find them, put

"Log was damp" as a matter of course. /
