I just read a website where they suggest you put a bucket under a roof
drain...makes sense to me. Large surface area but might get a bunch of junk
in the bucket. Then take a magnet and fish the magnetics out and use a
microscope to see what you " Caught!" Have also read where they take saran
wrap and put it in a bucket or even on a plate but not much surface area
there. I'll go for the roof.
