put some branches in between the logs, stickering it like a pile of drying
lumber. Once the logs weren't all jammed together the problem disappeared.
It stayed dryer, too. Don't let falling leaves get in there.


Does that really work?


Sure. It's a PITA to sticker everything up, but it works.


Or is the place hopelessly dark and wet?

You could try putting some big speakers near the pile and play heavy metal
at high volume.


Erm, does heavy metal music ward off hopeless darkness and wetness in
Jersey, Ed?


Reggaeton is what we use here. And if you've never heard reggaeton music,
it's hard to appreciate why it kills mold and termites.


Ohmyfreakin'god. It's a hispanic version of reggaed rap. I now
understand why it kills and maims so well. http://tinyurl.com/2jnodg
