Hello everybody,

I have this problem. There are three of them now, they are called
squirrels but are really just rats with bushy tails.

I have grown some seedlings in pots but the little buggers keep digging
in the pots and sometimes even kill the seedling by jumping on them.

I have tried chille powder, chillies chopped up, peppers, but they
still keep digging.

Any suggestions?

Thanks very much in advance.

It may not suit everybody, but I would shoot them with my air rifle.
It's fairly permanent!


... and you can eat them.



Absolutely! Mr Fearnley-Whittingstall (who my vegetarian ex-girlfriend
referred to as Hugh Murdering-******* ) has a great recipe for
Squirrel Satay.
