$.0325 to $.035 ea. in lots of 2000 depending where you live in northern 
Alberta.

Medivet sells 65% formic in 20 L or 204 L.  One less thing for someone 
to screw up, marked pails or not.

I have never siphoned anything without some spillage.  Blow the budget 
and get a drum cradle with ($120) or without wheels ($100) that safely 
tips the barrel on its side and use a plastic valve.
