But that would be like eating Lassie, or Trigger, or Rin Tin Tin.

So wait, are squirrels rare enough there that you have just one on your porch and it's the only one you see on a daily basis? I'd guess I see maybe 50-100 squirrels a day, here*. There are currently 2 chasing each other in my backyard, probably a couple more up in the trees that I can't see.


*also counting dead ones on the road

What would you do? There's wires in that place he's renovating. He could burn the house down.

Evictions are sad, but we are a nation of laws and everyone, including squirrels, must follow them... except rich people and politicians.

Personally, I would drive him out of the space by tossing a couple ammonia drenched rags up into the spot where he is nesting, and then after I know he's out, I would nail or staple chicken wire or hardware cloth over the opening.

I've got no real problem with killing him though, it's just that I am cheap and don't own a trap, but I have all that other stuff on hand in my junk filled basement.

I understand your dilemma exact. The eaves of Gravdigr House are covered in a fine, stout wire screen. I just like squirrels. I don't know why I've taken issue with this situation, I've shot, killed, and eaten my body weight in squirrels over the years. It's kinda strange.

Take him ten miles away, it costs a couple of bucks.

Or kill it. How ya gonna do it?

But are you sure that's the correct one?
