Hi Melissa ~
 
This is so behind the list date it may be an old subject right now.  The
herb truck backed up to the door last week and unloaded -- in my garden!
I have no time.
 
I have sanded my rust off and cleaned it with a 15% solution of chlorox
to warm water (15 chlorox: 85 parts water).  We used it on the tables at
the school cafeteria.  Then I thoroughly rinsed it in the yard and set
it in the sun to dry.  I have done this for rabbits for 15+ years.
 
Warmly ~
