I have a few in the back along the fenceline I'd like to cut down anyway, so I'm wondering if I can use this in my stove or not.
Thanks

A quick google search says that the sap is "reputed" to be toxic. The wax from the seeds is supposed to be non toxic and used for making candles.
I think I'd personally pass on it.

I think it would be OK to burn. Any toxicity in the sap will be destroyed in a nice hot stove. You'll be doing Louisiana a favor by burning Tallow Trees.
