Filer, Idaho (KMVT) - A Filer man came across some unwelcomed treasures after cleaning up his rental home.

The Twin Falls Bomb Squad was called out Tuesday afternoon, after the man found four pipe bombs inside a home he was renting out.

The homeowner says the bombs appeared to be old and rusty, and have been there for awhile.

The Twin Falls Police, paramedics, county sheriff’s deputies, Filer Police and fire departments all helped to secure the area.

They demitted the bombs, and vented them out for safety.

If you encounter any pipe bombs, call the police and don't touch them.
