Warrnambool Fire Brigade senior station officer Nevill Collins said the Bluehole Road property owner had been using a ride-on mower and returned it to the shed.
“It was still a bit warm and as such has ignited some fuel and other products that were stored in the shed,” Mr Collins said.
“The shed was detached from the house and was completely destroyed along with all its contents.”
