A RAT? that lives in a tree? i see the same little track in the new snow from the house to a tree with holes way up in the top..... aint no squirell.... seen it once , just his eye,,,and it looked african or austrailian instead of a usa varmit...
used ta be in my wall- now i think i scared it back outside.
i used orange oil air freshener. as my weapon of choice
and sprayed it near all areas...and it worked like a freakin miracle!!!

That is what I first thought of. I thought I was crazy the first time I saw one. It flew down right in front of me. Scared the crap out of me.:eek:

I am feed the flying squirrels out of my bird feeders a night. Not intentionally. There must be about 10 of them out there year round. Wondered several years ago why all the bird feed was disappearing so fast. They are pretty cool. Wouldn't want them in the house though. Most people don't even know they exist because they are nocturnal. Cat killed one a few years back and brought it in the house. Things are feather light and mostly skin, for gliding. Also spotted them at 3 am getting ready to go fishing a few years back thought they were bats. They make a high pitch squeaking sound, and can run up a 80 ft. tree in about 3 seconds. Then they glide to the next place. P.M.
