I have had this full tin of this stuff in my old hand tool collection for years
George's post about the Marval Mystery Oil can got me to thinking about this 1/2 pint tin of Crow repellent.
I had forgotten what was in it.

I think have have one of those cans sitting around that my dad bought. I think the main ingredient may be creosote.

My Dad used this when he planted corn. Don't know if it helped but never had a problem with crows.

Yep. Got one of those in the shop. I used it on sweet corn in the 80's.
Still has some in it. Works great.

I remember my Dad mixing corn in a wash dub with crowtox before we planted.

Nice can Loren. I believe I would display that.
I have this one that sits on top of the window frame in the kitchen.

My crow repellent uses #4 shot and works fairly well. TDF

You would have had a blast the other day when I was plowing. A flock of about 50 crows showed up to pick worms

Ultra Dog ,I well remember the old man saying about the old Model T ton truck with a warlords transmission the bands were a problem when over loaded most of the time. He would say Fullers Earth one day and Neatsfoot oil the next day. I was just a kid but I remember the junk man cutting up the old Modle T ton truck and throwing it up on his old rack truck and the last can of Neatsfoot went out the lane with it. Old man said many times later,should a saved that can of oil coulda used it some wheres. .Old Scovy.

Wasn't it basically creosote?
I remember the smell even tho it was 65 or 70 years ago the last time I saw it being used.
