I want one!

The Rodenator Pro TM uses a precisely calibrated mixture of propane and oxygen that is injected into the rodents burrow. A built-in, self contained ignition system then ignites the mixture, creating an underground shockwave or concussion that instantly eliminates the rodent and collapses the tunnel system.

Q. Why is the Rodenator banned in the state of Colorado?

A. Current Colorado statutes set by the Department of Wildlife do not allow the use of "fire or explosives" to be used in the elimination of wildlife. The Rodenator Pro does not create an explosion, but simply allows the oxygen to rapidly expand inside the tunnel system, creating a 5000+ foot per second shock wave or concussive force in the tunnel system. Until the statutes change, the Rodenator Pro will not be registered or sold in Colorado.

LOL! No, there is no explosion....you're just causing ignition of a 3% fuel, 97% oxygen gas mixture in an enclosed space. This "simply allows the oxygen to rapidly expand inside the tunnel system, creating a 5000+ foot per second shock wave or concussive force in the tunnel system." No explosions here!

LMAO

This is so great.

Who would want unsightly gopher holes, in ther nice lawns, when they can have exploded gopher trenches!

Anyone have DIY plans for this thing?

I have a network of hundred year old Woodchuck/Ground hog burrows on the side of the property. I wonder if the "Non Explosions" would affect my pool......

Looks like a glorified oxy-acetylene rig to me.

I have used that !!!!!
It's very cool!

My brother in law has a ranch in Nevada and that's what he does during the winter/off season. He grows alfalfa (sp?) hay and the gophers ruin his crop.

His other method is to trap them. They are some mean little gophers!

Fun to watch two living ones brawl

that looks like just a little bit less fun than a heavy barreled 22-250. it is always better to vaporize them one by one.

i just read an article in national geographics, that in some areas they are endangered?

I know of a guy who lit his neighbor's field on fiber using that stuff. Not cheap.
