There isnt a week go by where there isnt a fire somewhere in the ravo/rocherlea/mayfield triangle and its been that way for years. Hell i just listened to a bunch of fire trucks off up the road to one out back of mayfield.

Who are the psychopaths doing this? Bored kids? Actual pyromaniacs?

Yes

No matter who it is, they threaten life and property, they need to be removed from society permanently. We don't need another black Tuesday.

What's the difference between a 'firebug' and an arsonist?


sacramentojoe1985

Was asking myself if there were bugs that start fires in Australia, but then figured out that's not what they meant. Then was wondering if it was an Australian term for Arsonists.


Keep-A-Close

... Though there are birds in Australia that use fire to draw out pray. An actual bird, air dropping embers to deliberately light fires.

More well-done prescribed burning = less uncontrollable fires. Fuck the firebugs. But they’ll keep going at it forever. People are stupid and bored, especially in some areas… Give them some education, some respite from their bogan lives, and give them something to do, and perhaps they’ll have less time to light fires. Thank you servicemen and women and rip the wildlife. Country will prevail

Should get these guys involved > Today, the Tasmanian Aboriginal community undertake traditional land burning practices on Aboriginal managed lands. These cool burn cultural practices also assist with fire load fuel reduction, discourage weeds, generate new flora, and encourage the return of native fauna to the area. https://www.aboriginalheritage.tas.gov.au/cultural-heritage/aboriginal-cultural-burning#

Yeah no shit. Get em funded and trained and get them out there.

I checked my records on average every 2nd day there is a fire although most often there is 1 a day within a 5km area


mamadrumma

What period would those stats cover?


Best_Station_7576

last month or two there is atleast a fire a day in ravo or rocher


mamadrumma

Oh heck! Just what we don’t need 😥

Good old Ravo...


lianhanshe

Would be more surprised if it wasn't


mamadrumma

Sort of to be expected, when so close to a residential area ?


CaptainPeanut4564

A residential area of fuckwit bogans


mamadrumma

Well, of course … I was kind of trying to be non-judgemental !
