Preach it, brother!

If you think mice are bad try squirrels. They dislodged tiles off my
garage roof and made a hole in the roofing felt to get to stored apples.



And squirrels got into our loft and ate through cables. We're lucky
there wasn't a fire.

and no grilled squirrel?



Well, there certainly wasn't the delicious odour one might associate
with roast rodent. Mind you, RG got fairly hot under the colour when he
had to rerun cables in the rather tight eaves of the loft.
Hopefully, all the access holes have been blocked now and, no, we
haven't blocked Squirrel in. RG taped his mobile phone to a length of
timber and used the camera to check for lodgers.

We had a Rat problem so put down poison. We also blocked up the holes. Problem? We blocked up his exit. He died and rotted under the lounge floor.

We get bothered by squirrels, grey ones mostly, and the try to get at
all the bulbs I planted each year, and eat them. I have had to resort to
putting wire netting over every pot or tub which has bulbs in. At least
they don't get eaten, but the little b*\.s have a go at digging up some
of the plants I have potted, just to see if they are worth eating????
