Squirrels hardly ever carry diseases that are transmissible to humans, so that’s not something to worry a whole lot about. As long as they disinfect the bite to get rid of bacteria, they should be just fine.

Squirrel bites can hurt a lot, but their teeth are so tiny, it’s like getting poked with a sharp needle, or a deep paper cut. Hardly any tissue damage at all.

I didn’t know that! Thanks for the info. I actually like squirrels and was horrified a week ago when a fox in my back yard got ahold of one. It was awful.

But, again, nice to know.
