I have a bunch of Texas Sophora also known as eves necklace pod.  Any one have any clue as to if its safe for use as a fuel or not?

This is not an answer to your question, but seeds, leaves, and honey from the tree are to be avoided.

Yeah I found a similar article I'm thinking no,  its a shame I have a bunch of them that I need to cut down anyway.

My uncle who has live North of Houston all his life told me it is a "trash tree" and not to get too close wile burning it.  He stated HE is allergic to  the smoke, it and it gives him a rash.  Doesn't bother me though.
