This video is an overview of the next few videos we will be doing on the channel. Lots to clean up! Also let me know if you like the Question of the day and the Rookie Tip!

[@philmozingo]

I'd like to add a piece of advice that if you're not aware of, it can be fatal. Be careful when clearing brush and limbs that you keep an eye out for fallen trees that may be leaning against other trees. My dad hit one and didn't realize it was holding up a fallen tree and it fell killing him instantly. He had been clearing brush for deer hunting for years and never had this happen. It was shortly after a storm had rolled through and blew a lot a trees over. That being said, be careful out there.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Hate to hear that Phil, but thanks for sharing. Definitely need to look out for that stuff. God bless.

[@t.daniel5003]

Sorry for your loss. Thank you for the insight. I believe someone reading your comment will heed the warning and it could save their life.

[@Artoconnell]

My preferred piece of equipment is my check book.

[@NeonBlazeMusic]

If you get winters it's best to do this type of work when it's cold and insects are not around. Also, if you can get a machine with an enclosed air conditioned cab, that's a huge plus for when you stumble onto a yellowjacket nest.

[@jaystew730]

How to avoid snakes...start clearing when it starts to get cold.

[@ElegantHomestead]

I love your tip to carry an emergency kit for bites. You never know what can happen in a natural environment when you are busy working.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

This is true. I hope I never have to use it🙂

[@BearBottomAcres]

I’m so glad we don’t have anything poisonous up here in Northern Minnesota. You make some good videos!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thank you very much. We appreciate you watching the video and taking the time to comment 👍

[@thomasbrighton6159]

Hank in answer to you question I would recommend a pto driven chipper. Mine handles up to 8 inch diameter branches if you chip as you go you turn those downed trees and brush into future fertilizer. Grapple to gather with chipper on rear pto along with chainsaw in sawhaul rig and your good to go!.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yeah man! I wish I had one of those. It's on my wish list👍 thanks Thomas.

[@terrymangum3914]

Hank, having the Bite and Sting Kit with you on the tractor is a great safety tip. I got mine at Walmart in the camping area. I am always watching for poisonous snakes and more frequently yellow jackets. The tractor and I have located two separate groups in the last month. Great tip.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yeah you gotta be careful that's for sure. Thanks for the comment 👍

[@livewithnick]

Please don’t use anything out of a snake bit kit.

[@jerandjam127]

I am an EMT and all of my training has told me never use a snake bite kit. Stay calm and get the the hospital as fast as you can. Don’t try to suck the venom out or use a tourniquet to stop the venom.

[@livewithnick]

As an AEMT I can tell you snake bit kits are gimmicks. The best course of action is getting to the ER that has antivenin asap.

[@stanleyjohnston5876]

I recommend you purchase a ratchet rake that you attach to your bucket. The ratchet rake helps to remove vines from around your trees and clear out the underbrush. I've used one very successfully. Love your videos!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks! I'll check into those. It sounds like something I definitely could use👍

[@stanleyjohnston5876]

You can purchase at Tractor supply

[@BradMyers]

A nice air conditioned cab can take of the yellow jackets. As far as the snakes go, will be glad when the colder weather gets here and then that problem disappears. Good advice to always watch your step.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Man sometimes I wish I would have went with a cab. But oh well, such is life. Thanks for the comment 👍 I appreciate it

[@pennylessplantation]

Never thought about snake bite kit. That’s a good idea especially where there’s poisonous snakes. Great info as always.👍

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks a lot. I hope I never have to use it. Lol 😁

[@pennylessplantation]

Hamiltonville Farm I sure hope not.

[@HomeInTheSticks]

All good tips Mr Hank and yes sir, I carry a bite kit in my ready bag, we have a bunch of poisonous snakes here in the Sip as well!! Great thing to point out sir!! Dan

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks Dan. Preciate ya stopping by

[@jerandjam127]

Do not use a snake bite kit! Do not try to suck the venom out. Do not apply a tourniquet to try and stop the venom. Just stay calm and get to the hospital as fast as you can. The only thing that you might want to try is to get a picture of the snake to help identify it but getting to the hospital and keeping your heart rate down is you number one priority. I am a trained EMT.

[@benniebarrow348]

I’ve had and used tractors and skid steers. Skid steer with mulching head …..hands down .

[@AJmx2702001]

Clearin up Brush can be a tricky job there but with a good grapple and chain saw you can do things in a simple fashion where as with a mulcher head its goin to be some time to tackle it and its not the cheapest option. And its best to consult with a good forester if you have questions as well

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yeah good thought. My son in law would be a great guy to consult. I need to bring him up here soon. Thanks for the comment👍

[@Arkine13]

Excellent advice to carry snake/insect kits. Even inside our abandoned church we found a lizard, could have easily been a snake, and I know for a fact there are wasp nests in there. I look forward to seeing the clearing and construction vids! :)

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks a lot...yeah you need to be extra careful in the environment you are working in for sure.

[@FromSteelToWood]

My best option would be a tractor. Because you are going to have more seat time to enjoy! Lol! BTW here in Eastern Canada, the only serious bite you can have is frostbite! No such poisonous/dangerous critters! But the very cold temperature can kill you as quick as extreme heat if you get in trouble. Good precaution you take having this kit with you. Thanks!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks Joe. Yeah we don't have to worry about getting too cold much👍 Take care buddy

[@LouisianaTractorworks]

Good tip Hank! You are going to get so much seat time on this project. lol Looking forward to the next ones!! Have a good one!

[@dr.leonardhofstadtersavage6413]

Tractors come in handy, for work like that. Makes that type of work, a lot easier to do.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

You got that right!

[@HiddenMeadowFarm]

Good info. Always keep a lookout for snakes. I killed a huge water moccasin last year while bush hogging.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yeah they are out there that's for sure. We have a bend in our road we call moccasin curve because the same situation as you had.

[@Jjason601]

A tractor is more fun plus once it’s done you can say you cleared it. I got 6Acres that was like that I just hired a dozer to clear it out for 5500 and now it’s like 2 football field so now I just keep it cut👍🏻

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

You're right about it being more fun👍 that's more fun for sure.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yeah for sure. Gotta be careful. Thanks for the comment 👍 we appreciate it 😊

[@CrossroadToCountry]

Hate to break it to ya bro but snake bite kits are alarmingly ineffective. The best and most effective practice for dealing with a snakebite is to get to a hospital asap. Hope you got it cleaned up, wish I had that tractor :)

[@jimfritz8983]

My cousin and I were walking some of our 300 acres in Arkansas this summer and he almost stepped on a 5 foot timber rattler. Scared us both. I wear snake boots every time I go out there.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Man that was close!

[@eskippathiki]

P.B. Land Clearing did about 4 acres for me. Mulcher was the way! Was pretty quick and precise down fence lines.

[@georgeanderson3754]

My tractor-Steiner-has the mower deck or brush cutter mounted on the front, so you’re not walking into areas where you may have a problem with critters. Have had it for 20 years. A real workhorse for a smaller piece of equipment.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Have you seen my front mounted brush cutter videos? I have one of those too.

[@hphillips7425]

Leave any hardwoods and some of the brush could be used to create a funnel. It will be hard work and also fun and rewarding

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

That's my thought process. Somehow I could funnel the deer towards that area when I move the brush and debris. I'm really hoping it will be a good season for us. Thank you for the comment 👍 wish me luck 🙂

[@markmccoy1304]

I grew up in the Country. Saw many snakes and wildlife but never thought to carry a snake bite kit. I think that's an excellent idea. I would need to how to use it. They were saying on the news here in GA that snakes were coming out a lot more this year. I thought about buying some tall snake boots. As far as the clearing I think I would take my Mahindra and chainsaw and clean up the property. It would be challenging but fun. You're gonna have a golf course if you keep cleaning. 😜 Good video. Mark.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yeah man. I have snake boots but man they get hot! Appreciate your comment Mark👍

[@HeritageFarmsTexas]

Looks like a good project. I need to do the same thing in several spots. Anxious to see how your project goes. I’m thinking mulcher

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks Scott. Hopefully it goes according to what I have in my mind and it ends up looking great👍

[@SakimasRidgeHomestead]

Looks like you have a lot of work ahead of you. Good tip, poisonous snakes are not a huge issue in Ohio, but running across a hornet or yellow jacket nest is a real possibility.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks Bryon. Yeah, different areas require different thought processes don't they? I don't worry about cold weather hazards like you guys have to do, but it's all important. Thanks for the comment👍

[@UncleSurf]

[@davidelmore4226]

I've had good success in NC hiring a forestry mulcher (about $1300 a day) and then cleaning up with my kubota tractor and grapple. That way I don't tear up my equipment and it goes a lot faster.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks for watching 👍

Antihistamine should be added to first aid kit. Ice will help to keep swelling down for insect bites. And clean the wound as soon as possible. Great video. Good ideas.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

👍

[@finallyitsed2191]

To be honest, backing a bush hog into material gives me the worst neck pain from always looking backwards. A skid steer mulcher would be much better suited for that project. On another subject, I never considered a bite or sting kit but I'll bet I will have one on every piece of equipment that I have now! I had the unfortunate luck to have run into not two, but three yellow jacket nests this past summer. I hate those little buggers and they will chase you for half a mile. I had the welts to prove it too. Great piece of advice on the kit. Thanks!

Forest mulcher, unfortunately land critters are on it menue no matter how you do it. The forest mulcher will also be your safest method, somone else said dead leaning tress or dead limbs up in tress can fall on you and kill you but a proper skidloader with the forestry package is designed to make the job safe. A tractor isn't.

[@kevindearmon1309]

Good info and I will have one on board thank u for sharing

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks Kevin. I really never thought about carrying one myself until I ran up on a couple over the last few summers.😳👍

[@stephenlindsey9233]

Great video

[@HomesteadJay]

Hank, Another great video! I think the debate forestry mulcher vs. Bush hog rages on. There are some benefits of a forestry mulcher. One is you are going forward not backwards like a tractor lol looking backwards gets old as you know second is you are (relatively) sealed up in a cab versus exposed on the tractor. Another one is a mulcher is obv more powerful than a bush hog and less time you need to be off the seat. A tractor has the opposites of what I said. Youd need to come off the seat more, you are more exposed, and its gonna take longer cause its just a different animal. I vote MULCHER for the original cut in and then you can maintain down the line with the bushhog. Think of your time and effort. You can prob clean and thin that in maybe a weekend with a mulcher verses much more time and wear and tear on the tractor. Plus if you RENT something if anything goes wrong with it(generally) the company will fix it. The reason I say all this is because ive done hours of research, phone calls, and videos on KZbin on mulching. I looked into renting a mulcher for my 18 acres of land and to make a few trails on the 18 acre lot next to us. It would be more cost effective to rent and pay the money for lets say a week for a mulcher than it would be to bush hog and chainsaw my way through for months most likely! Time is money!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Solid comment👍 you are right. It's a cost/ benefit type scenario. Forest mulchers have so many benefits in certain applications. Thanks for the well thought out comment. It benefits us all. 🙂

[@HomesteadJay]

@@HamiltonvilleFarm No problem! I used to be all about saving money and being a hero and doing everything manually, which I still am that way and what not but honestly having a 6 month old baby time is money if this was my situation id spend the money and bang it out with the mulcher haha! I think the forestry mulcher will have that area up and running in no time! Excited to see what you end up doing!

The best first aid for poisonous snake bite is first safely identify the type of snake then calmly but fast to the nearest emergency room. Tell the M.D. what type of snake you think it is so he can order the correct antidote.

[@Oldmanintheforest]

I can’t afford the $90 an hour (minimum of 8 hours) for a mulcher which is the going rate around here. So I have to use my tractor and brush hog.

good advise. you never know. I also carry my little farm gun (Remington Tac-14) as seen in our last video as well as a pistol. but I don't carry a sting and bite kit. what is in there, you should do a video on what is in the kit and how to use it. I do have a EPI-pin on the tractor. good stuff brother, keep on keeping on.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

The kit is literally a razor for shaving the hair on the leg around the bite and a suction tube (like a needle) where you pull the plunger back to extract the poison. Very simple. And some alcohol wipes

[@Brandon68plus1]

[@MikeDPlxztc]

I keep a snake bite kit around but in reality I doubt if it would be any good the snakes I have seen on my property are so big that that tiny suction cup on the kit would not cover the Fang marks maybe you could do one at a time but honestly I think your time would be better spent getting back to your truck and headed to the hospital or at least call 911. The Rattlers I've run into on my property are usually around 4 to 5 ft long and when they're coiled up the strike they're well above the height of your snake boots so in reality you need snake gaiters also if you're going to be messing around in the heavy stuff. something I have experienced also is that you can walk by a snake one time and he'll let you by but if you come back the same path watch out. Trick is always to be aware listen and look sometimes Rattlers don't rattle they also hiss. That being said the little ones are no joke either I got a friend that can attest to that and don't forget snakes are not always on the ground they climb trees

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

This is true. I think the key is staying calm. Good comment Mike.
