I was beginning to think I was crazy... No one knew what I was saying when I said tree rats, but I'm glad to see I'm not the only one...

Projectiles. Once you get a couple, hang thier dead bodies in the trees, and the squirrels won't come back for a while.

I suggest climbing up there with your banana suit on. That should scare the crap out of them.

maybe not jail, just a summer vacation home with the padded walls... Not sure what to do about them. It seems to be a Missouri name, as I never heard it until I lived here for a while, when the inlaws went out hunting...

I had to look at a thread on tree rats. We got them in the house a few years back. what a mess. One moved into the area above the kitchen cabinets and had little ones. One of the little boogers fell down in between an inside wall and died after a few days. Talk about stink. We had to get a deoderizer from the county agent to get ride of the smell plus repair the hole in the dry wall to get it out. I go with the projectile recomendation. 22 bird shot should be about right to keep from blowing a hole in the house. Good luck with it. You might try hanging moth ***** in the attic. That has been recommended for rats in vehicles.

She probably thinks with all the new found fame and fortune you're gonna have that you will be moving to a bigger house.

Which look? The "Idiot", "Why did I marry this guy?", or the "Death" look.
