This was a wonderful Post and I enjoyed reading all of it. I knew that you came out all right because you wrote about it.

For the record, I despise squirrels. I have managed to trap and kill 10 of those little bastadges in the last 8 weeks or so. I have not done much in the last 10-14 days, but I am not done with them.

They have broken into my house 5 times in the last several years. They have destroyed my roof. They have caused thousands of Dollars in damage to my domain. I cannot even explain it all.

Be certain, I hate them, and any mercy that I may have is reserved for those poor skunks in my area. I trapped 4 of them and I released them all. They never did violence to my home and they are quite docile.

Once I capture a squirrel though, say Goodnight Irene. Those tree rodents are mental cases. The ones in my yard or area are truly aggressive. Well, I dunno if whacking just 10 is enough, so I am not going to stop. I will teach those trespassers to stay off of my property. So far so good.

It is incredible the damage that they have done to my home. It is probably $50 thousand Dollars once it is all settled.

***The squirrels in the backyard have been conditioned not to fear people. None of my roommates nor prior tenants did anything about them. I got pissed when their droppings ruined my chair and when I sat on it, it looked like I had pooped my pants & it was extremely difficult to clean.

So I made a slingshot out of rubber bands and a branch from the backyard. I’ve sent hundreds of shots down range and hit only one of them. But it scares them and they know it’s me when I go into the back yard. I have found that shooting a lot of small dirtclogs is very effective because the noise hits all the leaves around them & they feel like they can’t dodge it. No more hanging out above where I sit.

Tree rats. We’ve killed quite a few raiding the bird feeder. They’re nasty rodents.
