Correct me if I'm wrong, I believe I saw that somebody was making and selling these pouches within the community.?

havent seen anyone selling them on here but THP sells some and another company from spacebook is selling one. I use an old rubber coin pouch with a 550 cord tether on it.
 
Someone on here made them and gave them away in a drawing a while back. Maybe check the pay it forward section of the classifieds. I think maybe they sold some too.
 

Milkweed pouches

Decided to make these after tearing the thin mesh out of the one I purchased from THP. They are made from 500d cordura and heavy mesh with a ykk zipper so should last a lifetime. Wish I had enough milkweed to supply with the pouches. Pic shows front and back of pouch. @Allegheny Tom can help...

Also use the pod but I what I’ve done the most (15ish year) was use a plastic chew tin. I overstuff the container then pop& close the lid so the fibers stick out of the sides. It allows you to tug them out, they’re teased and float great. Works for a dozen or so times. If your mapping a feature you can open the top sliding it to the side for access to a bunch of it.

I also tuck it in the fold of my stormy kromer or hat with such a feature.

Bought a few things and go back to the plastic puck.

I've been using milkweed for over 30 years. To this day, I cannot understand why some guys feel the need to stuff the floaters into another container. God's container (the pod) is perfect. Why mess with it?

Beats me. I can't even imagine anything working better. A rubber band around it and if you want a safety pin to pin wherever you keep it.

I picked a dozen of them during the summer and put them in a paper bag. Later when I opened the bag and checked on them they had opened up and the floaters were everywhere so I had no choice but to put it in a container. Used the rubber coin purse works great. How do you keep the pods from opening?
