HMMM, time to make a nice noose of braid, make sure it's attached your beefiest pluggin rod, put the little beasts favorite treat in it... hide and when the little thief shows his bushy tail... set the hook!... they go absolutly nuts when encased in a snare.....

I had one stealing eggplants a few years ago, never had a problen until that one, I set up the snare and nailed his hairy little carcass,, he did escape after totaly spazing out.. he never stole another eggplant!

Birds are impervious to capsasin (hot peppers). Squirrels are not. Lace all your bird food with hot chili peppers and the squirrels won't bother with it.

Thumbs down i have squirells

i have the grey squirells totally under control

but the flying squirells are a big pain in my ass.

this morning @ 4:30 am i heard one ka-blam land on

the outside window screen and then climb it...more landings too

later, i heard them inside in the attic or in the friggan walls

so now it's .... war..... they are the insurgents... they
are surging into my house....

you have to shoot them from inside the house with the pellet rifle
with the window wide open so the sound is somewhat muffled

buy a pellet rifle.
they have these new pellets, depending on the gun you buy, they can go supersonic. they go directly through squirrels.
good luck

Drown the mf-er

Take a 5 gallon bucket, half fill it with water, then smear some peanut butter around the inside above the water line. Build the little bastage a ramp by placing a piece of wood against the bucket. Hopefully he'll perch on the rim of the bucket to try to get at the peanut butter, and fall in. Once his tail gets soaked, he's dead meat

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
