Everyone loves "Kinder Surprise" chocolate eggs -- even a squirrel in Finland, who has taken to shoplifting them from a grocery store.
A squirrel in Finland is nuts about "Kinder Surprise" chocolate eggs -- so much so it has taken to shoplifting them from a grocery shop.
Even worse, the furry varmint is a repeat offender, going into the store in Jyvaskyla at least twice a day to steal the treats.

Maybe those Iranian “spy squirrels” have found a new line of work.

I worked at a Coast Guard motor pool where candy was being stolen from a vending machine. CGI set up a camera to catch the culprit and it was a squirrel.

"at least twice a day to steal the treats" Sugar is like crack cocaine to animals.

Those were the Princess’ most favorite chocolates when we lived in Germany. The Easter Bunny always delivers some to her basket (thank goodness for www.germandeli.com).

I thought these chocolates sounded familiar. I hope the little bandit squirrel leaves some for The Princess. ;)

No kidding here Fellow Freepers: any suggestions on how to keep squirrels from tearing up your lawn? I have lots of trees out back and they come down to the yard and dig four inch holes in the lawn. Can’t hunt them or even touch them here in Virginia: what can be done other than run the sprinkler?

One squirrel ... one story ...
twice a day. LOL ...put up your dukes! ;-D

HAV-A-HEART type trap and relocate 'em. Some places will rent them.

Thanks for the suggestion but YOU CAN’T TOUCH OR TRAP THEM: even pest services CAN’T TOUCH OR TRAP THEM. I’m afriad to even use the hose on ‘em (but I would imagine they would jump pretty high if you zap ‘em in the butt — just imagining though).
It’s a war where I can’t fight: ugh!
