Dowsing for Land Mines

[Funfinder]

If the mine-types are known, the deminers should use the MD that fits best. And if there is none, the best idea would be clearing the fields with some anti-demining-tanks or vehicles. Of course this is not possible in special terrains, but l-rods, dowsing or pendulum is absolutly:
"No go!".

Why always rely on costly stuff? Rats can do the job too: http://www.apopo.org/

Nothing against you personally, but this method is ridiculous! Because rats are no explosive-sniffing dogs!

Bring those rats to the minefield and you will find nothing - you will loose them, by running away or even by "explosion".

Your mom also told you shouldn't play with your d*ck - so just forget it , but DON'T make fun out of this topic!

where Geo found a "Bouncing Betty" (for luck inactive already)! Demining and treasure hunting sometimes is nearly the same and you really should be as careful as possible.

Walking with a dowsing-rod into a mine-field is the same crazy as like walking with a bikini into the radioactiv zone of an atomar-reactor!
