Post by: Tom Tamer on April 15, 2013, 09:21:27 PM: Borax laundry soap. Takes about 11/2-2wks. All I use.

Post by: turkeydancer on April 19, 2013, 07:39:09 PM: I use 50% Borax and 50% Mortins table salt with good results ... but Borax or table salt alone will get the job done.

Be sure you spread and pin the fan as you want it to end up after you prep ...
