This is one of our family legends. In the late 70s, my dad decided to do this, probably post-Caddyshack, I imagine. It was more “fireballs shooting out of the ground” and less “thump”.

That’s okay. I couldn’t see it on Facebook.

That gopher burrow must have had some volume to it, or else we’ve discovered the location of that Rebel base.

Yo, dawg, I heard you like ninjaing, so I ninja’d your ninja…

Not complaining mind you. It’s as funny this morning as yesterday.

I like my cocktails Molotov - with a dash of benzene - and my gophers shaken, not stirred.

Why would anyone think pouring a hazardous chemical mix into the soil on their property is a good idea. Combustion isn’t going to get rid of all of the damage the chemicals are going to do. They don’t degrade easily. Good way to make your yard a hazardous waste site.

If they used propane, as it may have been, the combustion actually does clear that up pretty much entirely.

Go to the Rodenator web site and you get a page that says they’ve had to suspend operations because they’ve been financially gutted by an employee who stole a lot of money by directing payments to her personal Paypal account.
