OK so what is the deal with these things, I have always been curious about them. Is the whole thing about ozone being deadly and these being dangerous a bunch of BS?

no, THIS ozone generator will kill you and any thing that breathes, when you use this, get the fuck out of the room, maybe even evac the house for a few hours.
this is not the ozone generated with hepa machines, this is like a few thousand times more.
but it'll destroy odors.

I have one, they are great. I run them in the car if we've done a long trip and eaten meals in it or whatever. I do it in my wood shop if I've been staining or polyurethaning for weeks on end. Or if I've been smoking cigars in the machine shop. Whatever. Odours totally disappear.
Edit: but yeah, don't run it while you're there. I will never run it in a building I'm spending time in. Set it to run while you're out for work or whatever.

my first time using it, i just turned it on full blast in the, car doesn't smell but i wanted to try it. half hour later i open the door and the first whiff i got, i practically dry heaved, and it was WAY too much for just a car, i rolled down the windows and ozone was still in the air and circulating the garage for the weekend.
but the car does smell like nothing/neutral.
now whenever i use it, when i go back in the room i take like a full minute of yoga breaths and run in with my mouth closed, lulz.

That sounds like an on going methane leak, I'd suggest a long term solution such as aerator

So I know nothing about home stuff or basic repair things but evidently a squirrel or something ate the backside of my house. It’s on the corner that is pretty much only visible from my neighbors yard due to the fence and why I never noticed it till recently.
Checked out the area and nothing is currently living in it. Pissed on it and threw some some chemical repellent stuff in it for now. But how do I fix something like that? Do I just need to replace that whole long piece of siding? And then for the future how do I keep animals away from that?

Just keep pissing on it. Eventually it will harden like sap and seal it shut.

Yeah, either replace the whole piece, or live with the hole.
Live with the hole. Go ahead FOH. Make the jokes.

Fucking hell I literally picked the worst time in human history to look at building a house....
LBS
Lumber prices are up a staggering 188%—when will the wood shortage end?

I know you know this, but just to expand. It’s not just lumber. It’s concrete, sheet rock, shingles, and worst of all, labor. Very facet of building a house is more expensive.
I was about to close on a small lot to build a rental property and called my contractor friend and he said no way, he couldn’t build the most basic little house (like literally Sheetrock, pre-assembled cabinets) for barely under $200/sqft. He had several older houses for sale that he couldn’t even have built for the price he’s selling them for now.
It really happened in real time with the pandemic. I had work done on my house last year when this was all starting and my contractor would come every day and was in shock with how much a sheet of plywood cost that day.
For anyone looking to build: stop. Save your money. Be happy in what you are in.
