Notes
NOTES
- — You can use any size crock pot. If you’re using a larger one you may not need to fill it entirely full with water.
- — You can use this scent for a few days, being sure to turn your crock pot off at night then back on the next day when your ready.
- — If you are going to use the same scent for a few days, just check to make sure there’s enough water in the pot. This is basically a set it and forget it, but you want to make sure to watch for any evaporation.
