Gotta post to this one. Oliver got me to grinnin. 4 or 5 years ago a beautiful Saturday afternoon we were paving a state road and saw smoke across the valley.
It turned out to be one of the real smart "more money than brains" college professors from Cornell.

Woodchuck moved in under his new garage. He was gonna gas em (not gasoline) and light the match. (For those of you that do not know me I have very little respect for any of them over there in Ithaca). Elitest snob liberals.

As the garage started to burn he calledd 911. So far no problem. Fire dept on way. Flames burned into electric service. Now comes the problem with his electric gate that is chained and locked. Fire dept can not get thru quickly or go around.

Fire has gotten a real got start now. Professor finds out gate locked, keys in car in garage. Gates are finially pulled down and off.

They did save the house ...

Me thinks: Never try and burn out a woodchuck living under your house, make peace with him.

I wonder how much of a fire ball the rodenator creates and if it would bother hay near the barn???

It was one of the over the counter gas cartridges farmers buy.

It was not so much the problem of the cartridge as it went in by dead grasses and the hole is suspose to plugged imeadately with a sod wad and that did not happen.

I would not put any thing that burns or can be ignited down a hole under, near, by my house anywhere.

Reminds me of a story Jerry Clower telling about flushing a nest of rats out of a hole with gasoline and a match... a hundred burning balls of fur running toward the hay barn...
