Reading directions before using Bug Bombs is always good
http://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/2711548/detail.htm

The owners of the house at 3715 Euclid Ave. reportedly set off 19 bug bombs in the home to exterminate insects, only to have the gas inside the containers fill the house until a pilot light ignited it, tearing the house apart.

3. An exterminator would have been MUCH cheaper.

In a way, it's funny, but it's also sad. I hope the people had homeowner's insurance and that no one was injured. (I can't access the link for some reason)

5. Good luck collecting from insurance-
they generally frown on people blowing up their own houses.
