Idiots everywhere
This reminds me of the time when a neighbor decided to get rid of a wasp's nest under the eaves of his house by soaking it in kerosene and setting it on fire. He was left without 25% of his roof, a large bill form the fire department, and looking forward to years of his neighbors snickering every time they looked his way.
On the positive side, he told me, he did successfully eliminate the nest.
