My solution to the squirrel problem is a passel of large lively indoor/outdoor cats. They don't call them the perfect predator for nothing.

Ask any telco lineman or repair man about the damage they do to outside plant (aka cable)

All we have are red squirrels here and nothing short of a plate steel enclosure is safe. They chew right through the siding on houses, chew up wiring in vehicles, destroy attic insulation, house wiring, etc.

I’m guessing that those ‘squirrels’ grew into ‘beavers’ in senior high. :=)

Wonder how many they get to arrest for those using semi-auto .22’s that can hold more than 7 rounds?

It should be a field day for the police state.

Since the recent move from plush pile carpeting to hardwood flooring, I am not sure what high schoolers call it now.

I have three large cats that are allowed outdoors. There are always multiple UFOs (unidentified furry objects) spread across our driveways most days.

We have no problem with squirrel-caused vandalism though I notice the critters everywhere else in our neighborhood.

Just put the squirrels in the Brunswick Stew pot! Then they will have died for a very tasty cause.

I have never tried squirrel meat but that be the way to do it.

I didn't even know they held marksquirrel competitions.
