The machine is called the Rodenator Pro. It pumps propane and oxygen into the tunnels of squirrels, then sends an electric spark that causes an explosion.

"Better back it down a notch on the propane."

“use a special machine to detonate some of the 100 to 150 rodents”

This sounds like a H.A.T. gathering.

I wonder if they rent out the machine...

What I find interesting is there is a Rodenator Pro. That assumes there might be a home or travel model ?

Thankfully they are not using the De-Pelter Turbo. Because that is outlawed in every state, except Texas!

All the world in tune in a spring afternoon as we're poisoning pigeons in the parks.

And maybe we'll do in a squirrel or two as we're poisoning pigeons in the park....

If the marines don’t have the equipment already, tell them to get equipped.

I wonder if there is a marine version that could be used to solve the terrible rat investations on board ships? I hear the Gulf of Aden is especially problemsome.

It does, doesn't it? Gunner, do you by any chance have a squirrel problem?

I wonder if they rent out the machine...

If not, I have no doubt our guys could come up with some pretty decent alternatives.

There was this one house up the road that had an Obama sign.

They took it down.

If not, we can probably come up with alternatives for that as well.

Does Achmed like to spend time in tunnels?

Snickering at byline.

Here's the video of the thing in action.

Not to worry cause it sounds like gunshots?? Hearing gunshots in Spokane is not necessarily a good thing.

Achmed suffers from Daffy Duck syndrome. Guns, bombs, etc, will never kill him. This leaves him eternally frustrated as he'll never be able to collect his virgins.

Unbeknown to him this is actually a good thing, as all his virgins look like Helen Thomas and Michael Jackson in drag.

By gum there ought to be some generous Federal funding for him!

As a cultural icon if nothing else.
