I got the netting but it get all tangled up with my shirt buttons and

There are at least 4 squirrels dinning on my pears. I only got 4
Bartlet left on the tree so I can just wrap them. I had just thin the
Asian pears and right after the squirrels thin them a whole lot more.
Was going to shoot them up they are young ones and I didn't have the
heart.


It takes two people, and a bit of patience.

You can always box trap the squirrels and relocate them a few miles away.

You mean like the people who dumped them on my fruit trees?


lol I'd at least dump them at a local park where people feed them.

Personally, I find squirrel to be delicious. Wet them down before
skinning them to keep them from shedding on the meat.

But, not everyone can shoot tree rats.

One should always eat what they kill whenever possible.
