I kinda did that once with a mouse. That little gap under the drywall sheet where your floor woodwork goes was not in yet, and a box was in the corner. One side of the corner was already up, so the opening just dead ended. I got a regular propane torch out, and pointed the nozzle into the hole and turned it in for a few seconds. Removed the torch and got the Bic out. A little “FOOF” happened, and the now singed mouse ran out of there like nobody’s business. The cat managed to get him right after.
Did that once with gasoline pushing the vapor with a small fan. Ignited with waterproof fuse and then spent the next half hour putting out the flaming chunks of sod that were spread upwards of 40 feet from the original tunnel. I had a oxy/acetylene torch but never thought to try that. Pretty cool.

My brother and I did something like this when we were kids and our parents had a house in the country, except we used our mom's hair spray which we sprayed for about half a minute at a time into a gopher tunnel opening. Then we stepped back, lit a match away from the opening and tossed it in the hole. It exploded with a loud "whump" sound, but nowhere near as loud as what this guy on the video did. We saw the dirt slightly lift up all along the path of the horizontal tunnel, then it collapsed slightly downward. We did it on about three or four gopher tunnels around the yard, but stayed away from the house just in case. Mom probably wondered why her hairspray was getting used up so fast.
Even though this is 6 years ago. The reason for the delayed explosion is because the oxygen and propane around the steel wool needs to hit certain percentile ranges before it will actually ignite. Its better to use more propane then oxygen because you can always just wait. Also if you were using air not actually oxygen then u might wanna re think your ratios.
Not quite. You actually want more oxygen than fuel. The stoichiometric oxygen requirement for propane is 4.3:1 for maximum combustion and flame temperatures. The higher the temperature, the higher the gas expansion and in an explosion, its all about the volume of gas expansion.
When I worked as a mechanic for a private golf course we used to go out and clear gophers. We had a specially built system called the Gopher Getter that was oxy/propane, but it was attached to a nozzle with an igniter built right in. Had huge tanks attached to the back of a golf cart and wired it into the cart electrical system. We'd stuff the nozzle in the hole, drive and park about 50' away since that was how much hose we had and let it rip. Never had to get out of the cart. Good times.
Even if they were there, they'd be 18" deep at minimum and wouldn't detonate most likely even if struck by the explosion. There just wouldn't be enough Oxygen to ignite the gas.
Freezer Freezer My uncle did the same except he never knew the tunnel went under his shed and his shed got massacred and he had to buy just about everything new that was in there
Tickel My Tea YT ...... sounds like you’re uncle did a wee bit of Insurance fraud hahaha Suddenly it all becomes clear lol I like your uncle!!! He’s my kinda guy!!!
Awesome video, but I prefer just a common road flare. Place it in the hole after lighting, cover the hole. Do not cover the other connecting holes, that way the poison gas flows out and into all of the tunnels. Any gopher that escapes out is dazed, confused and easily dispatched with a .22short or a pellet gun. Much quieter and neighbors don’t get all bent.
no, the exhaust contains carbon dioxide and heat in addition to carbon monoxide, burrowing mammals are extremely sensitive to carbon dioxide, and air temperature. the gopher will abandon the burrow before the CO can incapacitate and kill him, and he'll just dig somewhere else near by or head to a different burrow. you'd have to plug every burrow entrance and trap him in the burrow. because the gas used here contained oxygen, and the fuel gas unburnt is non toxic... the gopher wouldn't have tried to escape.
I was doing this 50 years ago, we had a “rat” infested hedge row. I don’t know if it worked, but the hedge went into the air 6” and backdown again, great fun even though Dad wasn’t impressed!
Well, a few problems here. Did you calculate the 1 min of oxy-propane as you call it to cover the entire run of tunnels? Another helpful hint always use a neutral flame on the cutting torch for the best mix and lose the propane and get a bottle of good ole acetylene. The neutral flame on a good cutting tip or a rosebud running a little lean will produce the desired effect. You also need better igniter. I use 3 strands of fine copper wire and a black cat wrap the 3 strands around the fuse. Use several more extension cords and a 12-volt battery that's in fair condition. Walk off the tunnels and use 4" diameter average hole size to calculate the cubic feet. WARNING IF IT IS VERY LARGE DO IT IN SECTIONS UNLESS YOU LIVE A VERY LONG WAY FROM NEIGHBORS,LIVESTOCK, WILD ANIMALS, OR ANYTHING YOU WANT TO KEEP!
I was expecting gopher corpses to fly up in the air, I feel short changed, I also may have to write a stiff worded letter to the daily mail. ,, unless I see some mangled rodent corpses.
I did s similar thing every spring to push the gophers out of my yard. I pushed about 10 feet of half inch hose into the tunnel a nd poured a cup of gasoline down the hose, blowing the last bit out before pulling the hose out. Then I lit a gopher smoker and shoved it into the tunnel. I quickly sealed the tunnel with a couple of shovels of dirt. It takes about 30 Sec. for the gas to explode, blowing back to where the gophers come from.
I had to go back in my history for this comment. As I sat starring at a full red line I guess I timed out. No way that can stand. Loved your "detonator". I am thinking, what can go wrong. Kind of expected a building to go up in a huge blast. Great video. Bad boys, Bad boys!!!🦇
I did this years ago by making a HHO generator out of an old car battery that would not longer hold a charge. You could see the water level though the white side of the battery. I let it run until the water level was real low. I have no idea how much gas was in the tunnel but when it lite it off the blast rattled every window on my street and some one called the cops. By the time they got there I had hide the HHO generator and hide my self as well. I only did that once.

And he's gonna be like, I don't know i was just in my tunnel playing video games when I heard a noise and a funny smell and then all of a sudden, cabloowy shit went flyin everywhere...
My Dad and one of his friends poured 5 gallons of gasoline down a hole. This was in the middle of summer neighbors were all sitting outside. They lit it off and it blew up the one neighbors lawn and there were neighbors running all over the place. I never laughed so hard in my life, I still do every time I think about it. Thanks for the laugh!
Back in the 60s my dad plugged the exit end of a gofer tunnel.. ..put carbide pellets and a garden hose in the entrance.. plugged that end, then turned the water on. As soon as that water hit the carbide it made a thick white smoke that came out of the exit hole...no more gofers....ever. Probably not even to this day.
When I was a kid, I once removed a termite colony that was devouring our pole barn by pouring white gasoline down the hole, and then flicking a lit matchstick into the vicinity of the hole. BOOOM!!! An 8 foot long, 2 foot wide patch of our yard erupted into grass and dirt. The colony was only 3 inches deep. I was too young to know better.
What worked really well for me was rescuing three pit mixes (beagle/pit and boxer/pit) to compliment my two Argentine Dogos and letting them have free rein of the property. Granted it was small (2 acre) but they literally decimated the gopher and rabbit population on the property to include running all the coyotes off due to them chasing them and getting rid of their food source(s).

a1919akelbo it depends on the charger. If it's a trickle charger, maybe, but here are still plenty of old school chargers with no limiting circuitry, and even if there is, a 9 volt battery can ignite steel wool, and those don't supply much current. Most chargers regardless, put out a minimum of 2 to 10 amps, which is plenty to ignite a wad of steel fibres like what is used here. But steel doesn't make great connections either unless forced, or cleaned and oiled.

Thats the most ghetto ass detonator iv seen in a long time. Personally I get those little things that are basically tiny lightbulb filaments, then I press them against a match head and dip in hot wax. After that you just need to connect it to an electric current eg. a battery and then you've got yourself a waterproof igniter.
Until it doesn't. Or you fuck up. Which you eventually will because you're human. Playing the lottery is stupid and even a winner should be able to recognize it.

Back in the 60s my dad plugged the exit end of a gofer tunnel.. ..put carbide pellets and a garden hose in the entrance.. plugged that end, then turned the water on. As soon as that water hit the carbide it made a thick white smoke that came out of the exit hole...no more gofers....ever. Probably not even to this day.
Somewhere out there, Is a Gopher with PTSD! Freaking Out every time it's hears a hissing sound!
Reading the title, how could i not click the play button!!?? Lol
Um,
“I'm alright
Nobody worry 'bout me
Why you got to gimme a fight?
Can't you just let it be?”
retard
I’m sorry you feel that way about yourself, jackass!!!
Chickens won't lay eggs for a month!
+Bob Ross you mean they laid a month of eggs at once
I used to have a backyard shooting lane and shoot right over the top of chickens. Loud noises don't seem to bother them one bit.
Bob Ross hmmmm you have a point
When I was a kid, I once removed a termite colony that was devouring our pole barn by pouring white gasoline down the hole, and then flicking a lit matchstick into the vicinity of the hole. BOOOM!!! An 8 foot long, 2 foot wide patch of our yard erupted into grass and dirt. The colony was only 3 inches deep. I was too young to know better.
You made Bill Murray proud.
Gopher national news - A whole society is being bombed near Tree Valley, Humakaida Group has taken responsibility.

Use acetylene with the oxygen, I guarantee a “BIG” boom!!💥💥💥💥
Propane is cheaper.
@@PugilistCactus but it's rubbish when it comes to bang-for-your-buck
If your gopher is anything like the " Caddyshack " gopher, good luck. He is long gone guys 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Who else hears Bill Murray saying “all right Mr Gopher”?
What worked really well for me was rescuing three pit mixes (beagle/pit and boxer/pit) to compliment my two Argentine Dogos and letting them have free rein of the property. Granted it was small (2 acre) but they literally decimated the gopher and rabbit population on the property to include running all the coyotes off due to them chasing them and getting rid of their food source(s).
Sees first 20 seconds of vid
Looks for appropriate caddy shack comment
Profit
Very surprised this didn't have a ton of Caddyshack replies already. Guess the younger generation hasn't experienced the classic. 😅
CaptJLPicard92 Literally all I could think of! “A real Cinderella story”. But I too was surprised at the lack of immediate recognition of something apparently forgotten. BTW - good name - “Make it so, number 2!
AColonDashSix “Hey, Wang! Get a picture of this!”
Wow, Bill Murray has really gone hi tech!!! 😄
He would have been proud of this.
You better hope in the next world giant Gophers with whips and red hot pitchforks aren’t running the show
Another fine gopher eradication by Carl Spackler.
This is hilarious! Also, some diesel dipped cotton balls stuffted in the holes will kill them and discourage and more from moving in lol.
The steel wool was not burning since car chargers have current limiting circuits in it. Next time try just a straight car battery.
a1919akelbo it depends on the charger. If it's a trickle charger, maybe, but here are still plenty of old school chargers with no limiting circuitry, and even if there is, a 9 volt battery can ignite steel wool, and those don't supply much current. Most chargers regardless, put out a minimum of 2 to 10 amps, which is plenty to ignite a wad of steel fibres like what is used here. But steel doesn't make great connections either unless forced, or cleaned and oiled.
a1919akelbo clearly you don't know what the fuck you are talking about.
USE REAL FINE STEEL WOOL COAT WITH MARVEL MYSTERY OIL

Hahaha Nice job dad !! No one got hurt .. besides maybe a gopher

Gopher smoke, don't breathe this.
I'd love to have seen in the background, a nearby outhouse launch 20ft into the air when he touched that off. "Whoa, duuuude!"
"Boomtown Baby!"...(Gopher at other end of tunnel coughing and begins dancing to Kenny Loggins....)
In the immortal words of Jean Paul Sartre, 'Au revoir, gopher'.
LOL, all I can think of is Bill Murray in Caddy Shack!
Thats the most ghetto ass detonator iv seen in a long time.
Personally I get those little things that are basically tiny lightbulb filaments, then I press them against a match head and dip in hot wax.
After that you just need to connect it to an electric current eg. a battery and then you've got yourself a waterproof igniter.
If its stupid but works it isn't stupid.
Until it doesn't. Or you fuck up. Which you eventually will because you're human. Playing the lottery is stupid and even a winner should be able to recognize it.
If you fuck up something as simple as that then its safe to say the method isn't stupid, you are.
Model rocket igniters work great with just a battery.
Unco Casey broken lamp works as well.
