We drink a lot of milk and I have been collecting these bricks with the idea that there would be a usable function like isolation. But I slowly come back from that plan. the plastic inside will breakdown after a while I would think and there is no structural support of these packages. If I keep it empty, mice can nestle in it and filling with foam prevents from curing…
I am a bit out of ideas. Now i am thinking of using as insulation but then as a flat package. It will require only more milk drinking though 😅. maybe you have some ideas to reuse these cartons?
Some lessons on the use of milk cartons. We lazily did not clean all milk cartons and mice got through most of them. The mice at the cardboard with aluminum and plastic with the dried up milk bits… one advantage, the milk has dried up. Now I have cleaned 134 packs and are going to use it to isolate the chicken coop I am going to build. Need 250 packs for inside roof of 3x3m. Will update you once one wall/roof has been built.
Chickencoop roof ready and have only 14 packages left. I am getting high on milk smell 😅. How do you like this commercial. Still need to staple fence material under it for those too hot days where hot glue is not suitable anymore.
Nice work. How did you clean them?
Some of the packages were eaten out by mice but most Ive cleaned with putting water in and let it soak and flush. Then dried by nature as it was nice weather. Dogs would like to still steal and lick out though 😷
My concern is that it would be quite hard to really thoroughly clean them to prevent mold and such.
But I guess the mold would not get through the container anyway.
