Hey, I resemble that remark. Wish I'd have read about the tobacco &

a set time span.

Sorry about that. The nicotine in the tobacco constricts the
blood vessels and the spiderweb gives the PLTs a matrix to adhere
to. The honey or scorched milk make enviroments that most
bacteria can't grow in.


Really? I'd have thought that honey or milk (even scorched) would provide
a medium for bacteria to thrive in. What's the mechanism that kills or
stops bacteria in those media?
