I've recently put netting from deck to fence to catch the leaves of my
girdled maple. What a PITA.

The other day two squirrels decided to go at it on who was passing on the
deck rail and who would have to jump down to the deck. King of the Rail
pursued and had me worried one would fall on the net.

Anyone had to deal with a squirrel in a net? Unfortunately, as leaves have
collected the nets not as taut as they first looked w/o leaves. So I
envision a possible disaster if a squirrels lands on them. ~ jan

I have had squirrels go over the netting supports and scamper over the
net but I don't think one has ever fallen onto the net! The netting
supports keeps the net taut, so I think the squirrels can get out of
it pretty easily! The raccoons also skitter along the net supports
real easily!

I suppose a broom from the bottom to push the squirrel up or push it
along to an edge would work!
