No on the contrary....they love us tearing up the trails....gives them something to do lol Just kidding, I would really enjoy helping out if it were a little closer, might try if I can ever get my sewer line finished, got half the yard dug up adding clean outs closer to neighbors huge Maple trees! Many roots in my line near Main in neighbors yard/alley!

Before heading up north, need to get my priorities straight, first!
My system for killing roots in Sewer line, nearly completed! Had a brain storm one morning after a good nights sleep lol....instead of killing the roots from inside sewer line (which can get mighty expensive, dumping costly chemicals down the *******, every few months, to keep them at bay) why not go to the root of the problem....I know a pretty shitty joke ha ha....but seriously, going right to the roots killing them before they ever think about entering the sewer clay pipe joints!! So I got right on it that day, and bought a 3''x 16'' garden drill auger bit at HD for $6, heavy duty, that I rigged up to 2 - 1/2'' x 3' black pipes, with 1/2 union to connect them together, allowing 1st a 3' deep dig, then adding 2nd pipe allowing additional drilling up to 6' down. I also cut a 1/2'' lag bolt down to 3'' lg in order to connect 1/2'' electric variable speed drill to auger bit ***'y. Works great, but turns so fast on such a powerful drill, I had to learn to not put much force down on drill, causing the bit to hang up, being too aggressive/greedy/hungry! lol My plans are to space these holes about 6' apart, along a 40' run where most of my roots are seen on my sewer line camera, then permanently drop down a 1-1/2'' pvc pipe in ea hole, cut off at ground level w/cap, so as to be able to pour in dissolved rock salt mixture ever couple of years, way cheaper than chemicals too! Was hoping to finish digging today, but way too cold in single dig's this morning.....way up here in Gods White North, ORV Country, or a better definition ''We missed you again''....here in Michigan! in case you missed our great trails this year! lol
I'm finally getting the hang of MP....FINALLY!! lol
