(usually a 2 ft piece of copper tubing, and a 2ft piece of garden hose) toss it in the fire and watch it turn a beautiful green/blue/white. If you want to get creative, put 3 or 4 copper tubes in the center of the fire (vertically) before you even start it. That way you can reload the rubber garden hose in the tubes after they have burned out. The flame usually lasts for 10-15 min. It's a great inexpensive way to have a great fire.

She said that the mice don't like the smell. Put the cups on the floor in cupboards and in the open.

I did find the Prorac for the top. The website that show's the accessories is a "dead site" and would appreciate any information on the availability anywhere would be appreciated. Thanks!

She made fire-starters out of dixie cups, wax, wood chips (sawdust or dry hay work also) and the chemicals. She made 4 for each chemical 3 for burning and 1 set for display and took photos of each one. She even used other things also (like flour, talc, chalk etc.) She also took photos while making the fire-starters and the fire (in the backyard firepit) Then she created a powerpoint file and ran it on her laptop during the fair.
