Creosote Sweeping Logs
These creosote logs burn like a regular piece of firewood but will help reduce dangerous creosote build up in your chimney. When used periodically in your wood stove or fireplace it will reduce the thickness, weight and flammability of the creosote in your flue. It also reacts with chimney deposits to make them to reduce adhesiveness.
The logs are easy to light. No need to remove them from the wrapper, just light the whole thing including the wrapper. People who use these creosote sweeping logs with heavy creosote build up claim the creosote hardens and breaks into small pieces that fall off back into the firebox where they are burned.
