[actually, the final *final* step involves using Clorox to get the black stain off you and everything else they’ve touched]
I’ll just buy them at the store, thanks....:))

Hmmm. Well maybe the squirrels would split the work?
As exhibited in the post that started all this, you do *not* interfere with a squirrel holding a walnut...they will not cooperate....;-D
