We used to have annual squirrel attacks on the house (large trees with branches often overhanging the roof until pruned back). Now that we have dogs, the problem has abated (one dog is fast enough to catch them on the ground occasionally).

The dog also fixed the groundhog invasion, with prejudice.

We got two dogs last Christmas and the squirrel problem has noticeably decreased. I still see a squirrel in the yard from time to time but don`t hear them rummaging around on the roof anymore. They do gnaw on my wooden fence still though.

I hate those little buggers. The home we are in now apparently had them in the walls and attic for many years. The previous owners never did anything to get rid of them. As I tear away the drywall and insulation, I can`t believe this house didn`t burn down years ago. The damage is incredible. And don`t get me started on the mice.....

It was easier to get rid of the mice than the squirrels, I will say that.
