*I hang our clothes between three trees, about 15 feet apart on a nylon line
made for a clothes line.  Never ever have a problem with bugs, bird scat
etc. and we have all critters in abundance.

 2. How many linear feet of line or square feet of rack is necessary if I
need the capacity to dry 2 loads simultaneously, at most?

*The above holds two loads if they are not too large*.

*Clothes on lines catch the breezes and dry softer.  OTOH Ikea makes very
good racks, highly recommended.
