Hello,

What about plain old CO2 (carbon dioxide) for killing ground hogs?

I will have to check the National Organic Rule to be sure, but off hand, I think CO2 is permissible. It is the CO from exhaust pipes that is not considered organic. Your suggestion of old fire extinguishers or other forms of CO2 production seems like a good one, as CO2 would linger in the tunnels for awhile.
