Squirrel, anyone? (other than po' trailer trash)

What would you do? There's wires in that place he's renovating. He could burn the house down.

Evictions are sad, but we are a nation of laws and everyone, including squirrels, must follow them... except rich people and politicians.

Personally, I would drive him out of the space by tossing a couple ammonia drenched rags up into the spot where he is nesting, and then after I know he's out, I would nail or staple chicken wire or hardware cloth over the opening.

I've got no real problem with killing him though, it's just that I am cheap and don't own a trap, but I have all that other stuff on hand in my junk filled basement.

Remember Jim went through this shit in the old house when they invaded his attic.

I understand your dilemma exact. The eaves of Gravdigr House are covered in a fine, stout wire screen. I just like squirrels. I don't know why I've taken issue with this situation, I've shot, killed, and eaten my body weight in squirrels over the years. It's kinda strange.

Take him ten miles away, it costs a couple of bucks.

Or kill it. How ya gonna do it?
