All right, the first product I want to talk about is Socket Blockers. So I have them right here. This is a box of them and they come in multi packs and this is a product. Let me just open it up and I'll show you right here. This is a box just out of my trailer. You can see some of them are used and they're used to cover the Sockets on, you know, in a house when you take off the switch plates or the plate covers and they're also used to cover the switches when you take off the switch plates and they're very simple and easy to use. They have a double-sided tape on the back of them. They just stick right to the switch plate or the socket very quickly and easily. I'll show you some new ones. They come right here on double-sided tape right there. Just peels off quickly and easily and now they're going to stick, you know, right on the socket. You know, in the past before I was ever introduced to Socket Blockers, I just simply masked them off. So I've used, you know, inch and a half tape. I would typically use frog tape. I want something that's going to come off the Sockets or light switches, you know, simply and easily. But Socket Blockers, you know, unlike masking, I'll grab a, you know, roll a tape here. I know you're you're walking up the each socket and you're trying to, you know, get the edge of your tape, you're peeling off some tape and now you're sticking that and you know, molding it around your socket or molding around your light switch. And you know, that's a fast process that I've got to say Socket Blockers is peeling them on and they just stick right on the switch plate quickly and easily. It's probably two to three times faster. Now, you know, once again, they are reusable and I'll tape itself. You're going through the tape. It is not reusable. So tape will cost you money. It's just a little piece of tape covering the socket or the switch so it's not a big investment. But Socket Blockers, I've used them, you know, up to five times on five different jobs before they begin to lose their tackiness. It's a three in double sided tape that tax very well and then they just stack together and go back in the box. It's a great little tool that I began using years ago that I absolutely love. They're a lot faster and more efficient to mask with and it protects the entire socket. You're not going to get any bleed on it bleed through. A lot of times, you're putting tape on the the face of the socket or you're putting tape on the outlet. If you're actually…
