Another informative video - thanks Lilly
Very good explanation of the how-to in a short video--thanks.
I grew up in the swamp. Cattails are amazingly useful in many ways.
Lilly, you seem to have mastered the art of UA-cam presentation very well. Short, direct, and to the point . And of course, your topics are always very interesting. Congratulations. Best wishes for continued success.
Thanks Lilly. I've known about the properties and uses of cattail for years but you just taught me how to properly use it. Thank you.
Great vid on something so simple yet so helpful in survival
That cattail fluff is awesome. We use dryer lint for kindling because we don't have cattails nearby, but that is a great survival tip. Also, using it as insulation is such a good idea.
Great explanation and demo on using flash tinder.
Perfekter Zunder für den Funkenfang. Schön gezeigt. LG Carlos
My friend fell through the ice about a month ago on a shallow pond but flooded in his boots so he took off his boots and socks and I got some cat tail and surrounded his feet with it and he was very warm. In a survival situation it is a great resource!
Hi Lilly,
Did you know that cattail fluff was also used to fill life preservers before we had modern materials? Also, you can eat this but, it goes through rather roughly.
I've been told that cattail fluff is a better insulator than even goose down.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks for showing more ways to start a fire! I've gotten much better at starting our wood stove after learning some of your techniques.
Nice demo of how to combine flash tinder with slower stuff Lilly.
Dave
Thank you for showing this, actually showing how to use it. I would never have thought about using a secondary tinder!
Very useful, thank you.
This bushcraft channel is awesome and those survival lily videos are amazing and fantastic and I hope she get more success in everything she does and I hope she gets more one million subscribers soon and this bushcraft strong remanded and please support this amazing woman and her awesome bushcraft channel and I am glad to find this amazing bushcraft channel
+donna pratt this must be a relative.
My wife and I took a drive around into Idaho and I found a lake with cattails that I could reach around the frozen edges. I picked about a dozen heads to test making fire. Thanks for this video. I didn't know the heads reacted this way to a fire. I thought they would be a good tinder. I have to play with them and see how I can use them in my kit. Unfortunately there are not a lot of them in the woods around here because it is all mountainous.
Thanks for the video! Cattail is very very common where I live, and this is good info!
Thanks for sharing Lilly, I always enjoy your videos.
Thanks. I find your way of explaining things very interesting.
Very good vid! Cattail seems like good insulation for your raised bed at the BOS. Thanks for the info.
Great Video! Now is the time to harvest the cattails(winter) Danke
great video Lilly, thanks for sharing !
That is some useful tips. Thanks :)

To Lilly.
Your the best and cannot be criticized
From Craig White UK.
I like to cut a small hole at the top of the cat tail and light it, gives you a small torch for about 5-15 minutes depending on the size of your cat tail, makes it real convenient to start a nice fire or even carry a fire with you. Try it out some time Lilly
I pack cat tail fluff inside of a big tin. As much as I can physically get inside the tin. Put the lid on and char it. It will catch a spark or ember and then you can use the entire can to start your fire. slam the lid back on it and reuse for many up to 10 or more before it is used up and you need to refill it.

Survival Lilly I have a very serious question for you, but before I ask you I want to let you know that I have been watching your channel for several months at least and love the information and your way of presenting it and I also have build a shelter in the forest.
Here is my question for you as an health researcher / expert. Survival is your topic your passion obviously, but how about expanding the topic to also long term survival over decades. I see major issues with your survival based on your nutrition which you have showed us. How can we improve peoples survival for life which is long and full of health and happiness? The documentary "Forks over Knives" is the best way I know how to communicate my point. I love what you are doing and I would love to add more survival options to what your channel is presenting. How to survive long term with no cancer, heart attack, join degradation, strokes. If even a few of your viewers or you benefit from this it would be worth it. I don't care about getting more views on my channel or what ever as I don't even monetize my channel but I do try to help others who want more long term survival because it is hard to survive as an obese or arthritic person who just had a stroke and or various conditions. It is just my view but we need to focus also on long term survival in this modern toxic world. Being connected to nature and doing what you do in nature is amazing and part of a healthy lifestyle but there is room for improvement Lilly. If you are willing. Health Supercharger
thanks, i never thought of that. luckily it is plentiful where i live
Another useful tip for fire, thanks Lily, there are catails everywhere where I live.
Thank you, I tried this a couple weeks ago and it didn't work. I see now that I was trying to use too thick a layer without spreading out the other tinders enough. Time to try again!
charred cattail heads are the best thing to catch a flint and steel spark, in my opinion. always in my fire kit!
Great presentation.
Let me just say I am you biggest fan plz always do this
Well done
top video very informative,,,stay safe.
When you find cattails save a few and plant them on ponds in your area.
+Bobby Atkinson
Lilly, I did not know that about cat tails. 😃👍
I think cat tails are a beautiful plant. So I transplanted some in my wife's flower beds around our pond.
They spread like wild fire. They took over everything. They got so bad, the wife made me kill them. She told me to keep my nose out of her flower beds. Needless to say, I was not her favorite person for awhile. :-( Lol !
They are prolific growers I can see how they could take over. Maybe save a few for local ponds or marsh.
nice lily, and you can save cattail fluff in a container of fabric that can be used as a fillow for your shelter ^.^
Thank you Lilly for the informative video. I don't know if you have milkweed where you live but milkweed fluff makes excellent flash tinder that behaves in a very similar manner to the cat tail fluff. It almost explodes when ignited. Thanks again!
Can you do more videos on making food
Good video. They can be used to make a fire but you showed why I don't use them unless it's a last resort.
Ed
Loved the vid
Well love it is not over yet lol
I have never seen on any survival channel . Using this form of fire starter . And that is pine cones . Pine cones are full of oil just like the birch bark. You have to use the cones that have fallen off the trees and they are open. You can use the green ones . They can but are hard to get started. They want start with flint or steel or a fire steel . But they will start with matches or a lighter . They burn a long time so you can take your time building up your fire . Please do a video using the idea . Thanks.
great videos. I'm glad I found your channel.
I haven't tried it yet but areas with no cat tails might have milkweed growing in grassy areas. they are very fluffy as well and should flash the same.
great vid thanks for sharing
Nice One.
great video
So warm and fluffy.. Just imagine making a pillow from it.. :-)
Hallo Lilly
Wenn man den Rohrkolben ein wenig in der Hand reibt dann
mit dem Feuerstahl entzündet so glüht er schön weiter und kann ihn ins Zundernest legen.
So verbrennt er nicht innert Sekunden :-)
Vg Guido
All right Lilly (cheering)...you should have mentioned that the stick after you clear the fluff from it can be used as a spindle for a bowdrill as well ....but im sure if anybody tries this theyll figure it out for themselves ..right ?...nice one Lilly ..take care
+Arm Mihr Cat tail stalks are rather flimsy...you would have to be really good with your technique...just my $0.02...of course, YMMV...
found it.. many thanks
Going to try thistle i think after watching this thnx
Intro is sweet
Also using a broken/out of fuel lighterwheel will create sparks to ignite the cattail
can you pls make a vid on how to make charcloth
I think you might be a bit of a closet pyromaniac -looks like you were having extra fun with that cattail fluff :)
Lilly, love your channel! Keep up the great work. :-) Nick
Another great video. What was the backpack you were carrying?
If you brought two pairs of socks you can stuff the fluff between the two layers, put your boots back on and BAM! super insulated feet.
mint spot on. as a girl i love that girls are geting out there you make me want to do my own show. you rock chick! xxxxx
Lily really like your channel , I live in Brazil far away from you and do not speak English , but I am adventurous and do tracks, shame that live far away. Kisses Rodrigo Schneider

Great vid as always.... Can also be used in water filteration ! ;-)
great videos you are the BEST
When the cattail is ready to use as tinder, is it also the right time to eat the root?
Coloque legenda pt-br,seu canal é mt querido pelos Brasileiros
Hi Lilly. I never pulled apart a cat tail. I didn't know there was so much "fluff" in there. You could make a pillow with that. The insulation is a good idea too. Looked pretty f-ing cold.... LOL
Lilly, you would survive the zombie apocalypse.
Hi Lilly. Can I ask what kind of camera you use and do you use a wireless mic.
It looks like you murdered a teddy bear. XD Love the tips though, definitely using this when I go out. Thanks Lilly.
amazing
2 things
.Where's your dog?
.epic new intro
Great video, Lilly. Flash tinder. Question : Would Cattail act as a "punk" in it's natural unfluffed state for transporting fire or ember?
Eres la mejor ;-)....!!!!! ( Spain)
Where did you learn all this stuff?
I think she learns mostly from books. she recently made a video on the survival books she has
What if u keep the cattail compact to allow it to smolder?
Is the fluff itchy? Can you be alergic to it?
I ask because I'd prefer I wouldn't find out when I stuff it in my jacket for warmth.
Do you use a GoPro silver or black and why ?
Hey, could you tell me what you used to ignite this tinder? I have to buy myself this too!
like your hair getting longer. looks good
as raiz são comestiveis
If you moisten that, press it flat, dry it and char it, how would that work? Would that be some kind of primitive charcloth?
I used to have a stand of cattails on the edge of my pond until the beaver ate them.
+Vsshooter Now it's time to eat the beaver. Fair trade I say.
+Saltofpetra - But first the beaver must be caught and killed. A tall order when the critter I nocturnal and I live 200 miles from the pond.
Hi cooles Video ,was arbeitest du eigentlich? Bist du Jägerin oder Försterin oder gehört dir einfach nur dieser Bereich des Waldes ? :D
Hello I have just watched an old video so I was wondering for the bread how do you make the sour dough?
+Jammie Molina you can buy one or get one from bakeries. that is the easiest way
+Survival Lilly ok thanks really helpful :)
+Jammie Molina there is a sourdough starter kit for bread. you keep it growing in a ceramic sealed pot. old timers used to do this in Alaska. google it:)
+40belowful ok I definitely will :)
I like her hat
o_o when she put the cattail on her jacket all i could think off was, ALLERGY!!! u_u now i feel itchy.
Will Cattail grow around bodies of water in most climates, will it survive a sub zero winter?
+George Crabtree They grow everywhere here in Western Montana...and we routinely get sub-zero weather...and the are prolific in the upper Penninsula area of northern Michigan...short answer, yes...
Excellent!
Excellent!
💥🔥
Question...what kind of fur hat is that you are wearing? I have a similar hat I got in Canada...it is badger fur and it is way too warm for anything but the coldest weather...and then it is the only thing that keeps my head warm...those crazy Canadians know a thing or two about cold weather and fur hats...prost...
you should make a small dog house for your doge
Salute, Lilly. A long time ago, and I love watching your videos. I would like to know your opinion about paganism, if you perceive it as an ideology.
Put a roof all over your bug out camp that will be wicked
so cattail is edeble?
+Gabriel Olmedo
Yup! She has a vid on that.
I live in the Arabian coast of the Persian gulf,I can't find it ;_;
Lilly, cattail insulation is a great idea (using your head) , BUT is it irritating to the skin ? If you're hypothermic, I guess it doesn't matter. A very nice idea.
Here's another "flash tinder.. sorta. Could come in handy. Lilly let me know what you think.
