Squirrels are territorial; once you kill the big dominate squirrels even more will move in.  You have no idea how many squirrels are around until that happens.

I had to smoke an amazing amount before I was no longer bothered by these annoying little buggers.

Oh, and the best way to draw them out of your house is to set up your own feeder and then audios.

Well they are gone. New wire mesh across the opening. They won't be coming back. They haven't been coming in the yard since I killed the one......now some strategic deer netting to stop them using a couple of routes........
And I was thinking...........what about some rubber snakes........squirrels don't like snakes do they? There's not a lot of squirrel eating snakes around here but I wonder if it would work. :dunno:

I feel your fain Ductsquatch. I had a problem with them at my place earlier this past fall. Little sons chewed a large hole in my plastic trash can and made a huge mess! I shot two outright with the trusty Crossman bb gun, and trapped 5.
The worst day hunting is better than any day at work!
