<p>We use Dr. Pepper, a few drops of dawn dish soap, apple cider vinegar in a small bowl to keep flies and bugs from entering the electronics. Fly tape is good also.</p>
<p>The only thing we put on a metal roof is rain :)</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I think Korker's boots with metal roof pads are pretty good. Cougarpaws keeps trying to come out with metal roof boots but none that I have used are perfect just yet. Cheap orange or grape soda sure has lots of sugar and will help adhere you to a roof. Good soda would probably disappear out of inventory quickly....<span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span></p>
