I placed an order for a pump-action pellet rifle and 6000 bb's, and you can have it shipped to the nearest store to you for pickup ...for NO SHIPPING FEE!

I placed the order yesterday, and it is being shipped today. They will send an email when it arrives at the store of your choice.

I have WAY TOO many squirrels that have been digging in every potted plant and garden bed every day. To top this off, they have all just weaned their FIRST litter of the season, so we have over a dozen grey tree rats roaming our property at any given moment.

Time to cull the herd!

Be glad it's not two dozen

This is my issue. Walked out the front door this morning and there were no few than 5-6 in my immediate field of view digging in our small potted veggies and tearing into the bird feeders. The damn things are so brazen that they don't run away when I go up to them, they just move slightly out of range.

With the yuppy neighbors, I have to be selective of when I thin them out so I'm only able to pick off 2-3 a week. If it weren't for the neighbors, I'd probably be able to get 4-5 a day for a few days.

no fresh digs today :happy:

I still hear them around the pool but haven't started attacking them yet. Pool is leaking again. Might be a remote detonation of 20,000 gallons. I'm thinking nothing would survive :hee:

Set up a remote video and film it like it was a scene from "Earthquake" (the dam-breaking segment).
Maybe you could rig it so that the "flood waters" would fill their burrows , kind of like the hose-soaking scene from Caddyshack?

Nice. :smash:

Fresh 8' burrow under the pool liner. Wasn't happy with a single lane the friggin thing had to go double wide. WTF.

That got 1/2 gallon of bleach all around the base of the pool again. That seemed to work pretty good last year.

Fresh burrows all over the backyard. I found a vole burrow now too. He popped out I wasn't that quick a shot.

good shot :grins:

CAUTION EXTREME VIOLENCE DEATH :hee:

1/2 gallon of bleach did nothing this time WTF

that all LOWER branches that
stayed buried in the snow had
all the bark chewed off.....

it must make them Horney :rotf2:

wtf now I got ninja squirrels

hey grapenuts this looks like something you lost? :rotf2:

Few days of quietness and no new holes. Get home today and fresh dig next to the door. Grab the trusty varmint hunters friend and wait less than 10 minutes outside the garage. First one I stunned it...turns ass end to me. I reload quick and run up to the steps...he ain't movin. I hit him from 20' and he was rolling on the top of the rock. No body by the time I got there.

He won't be back :hee:

there's many replacements

Took a few "practice" shots in the back yard this morning (made sure the neighbors couldn't see) and made a couple tree rats take off with a little more than a wounded pride.
If they keep coming back, I'll have to "pump up" my presentation a little more. (10X instead of 3X)

My brother wanted me to take care of a couple of pigeons that had been coming to our yard. I had to explain to him that they aren't a problem because they only came to the yard because of the cheap birdseed and breadcrumbs that get scattered in the yard.

The real problem are the squirrels, because they are destructive in many ways. They will destroy bird feeders, birdhouses, dig up garden beds and plants, chew up lots of veggies BEFORE they are even close to harvestable size, and they leave their little turd pellets all over the place.

Only time will tell whether or not they get to stay or go to "critter heaven"!

I am going to electro-fence my humming bird feeder when I get home

Hit another today. That friggin rock is like a munk hotel

I have 3 at the shop I feed eveyday...jr..shorty an the old man....lots of fun to have around...they come in and sit waiting for their goodies.They go out with cheeks full back to their hole...then on the weekends I leave a dinner plate out full of dried catfood.

ha! just got another driveway side in the loam pile.

It's probably alot more than 3

I'll be down this weekend :hee:

I've lost count how many now. Dam! I never ever figured there would be this many!

Big black poo in the street at the top of the driveway yesterday. Looked like larger animal poo. Coyote maybe.

Another at he shoP this am. Didn't kill in first shot but my size 11 did it in one stomp :)
