I made a redneck swamp cooler with burlap bags and a concrete mixing tub of water. I wet the bags down first, and then draped them in the water. They have been in there since yesterday, and it is only wicking up water a few inches. Does it work better with cotton? :? Or maybe they need to soak for a long time to saturate the fibers more thoroughly. Hubs just bought a bunch more bags for me yesterday, so I hope I can figure this out and make it work. At least they have shade for now.
The only other alternative I can think of is putting the water source on top of the cages so gravity will help me. The issue with that is the weight of the water.
What to do?
