I'm pretty sure my Missus was a secret agent in a previous life. She has field craft. She just knows stuff.
Last year she left matches in a caravan loo we were sharing with friends. Apparently lighting one rids the smallest room of unwelcome nasty niffs! Who knew!
This year I am looking at wet paper balls.

Obviously if you have a shredder or incinerator then the above wet work is unnecessary.
I am planning on issuing my Missus with a Secret Sam Attache Case before SCMURSCH blows her cover!

Here's a few Dinge ( German for things) I've seen among the Spielzeuge ( German for toys)
A gorgeous long plastic oil tanker, about 18 inches, that could easily be a prop in a Thunderbirds episode.
A water and soft dart gun, that totally recalls Hellboy's pistol, the name of which I forget!
Knockoff Bionicles
