Ain't that the truth.

Reminds me of when Dad ran a bug catcher by the barn in southeast
Texas. The bug catcher bag wouldn't hold them. Ended up with a
crawling pile that filled a wheelbarrow. To kill them, Dad dumped on
gasoline. Later that day, he scooped them up and dumped them in the
burn barrel (we used to burn trash). Even later, he took out the
trash, lit it, and promptly got knocked down when all the little bug
bodies exploded. He said he was covered up with bug bits.

So I hope there's a lid on those rice hulls.
