The message

"Rupert (W.Yorkshire)" Do take care not to melt the end of the hosepipe.
Ideally you need an
inefficient (non green) engine that belches loads of carbon Monoxide.
One final caution:- Moles do have burrows under sheds and outbuildings
into which CO may rise/seep
Thanks for the warning. I will monitor how it goes. There is some old heavy
gauge hosepipe laying around I can use. Presumably a bit of Duck Tape will
attach it to the exhaust.

Keep all the car windows wide open while you're doing it. Otherwise,
you and the moles might share the same fate.


Hang on - the exhaust is going down into the hole, not back into the car - I
hope. If he leaves the car windows open any indignant wasps are going to
pay a visit. Perhaps it's better just to head for the house and shut THOSE
windows!
