    Re: Squirrel

    OK Dan, and deer. They eat everything you ever try to plant and they...

    I've got to stop. I'm sounding just like an animal hater. And I'm not that at all. At our house, pets rule. Members of the family. Okay, hush peewee.

But they seems to do it pretty much year 'round unless it's REALLY cold.

      We cleverly bought a house with NO trees here in Wilmington. Whatever critters there are are in the neighbor's yards. We get to look at their pretty trees but we don't have to deal with the aftermath, including squirrels. And I haven't seen or smelled a skunk since we moved here. Maybe they left as a professional courtesy? We see deer pretty often (little bitty ones compared to MI whitetails) but few other creatures.

      Dan I belive you were thinking of the Jimmy Castor Bunch song called Troglodyte.....

      "Sometimes he'd get up, try to do his thing. He'd begin to move, something like this: "Dance...dance". When he got tired of dancing alone, he'd look in the mirror: "Gotta find a woman gotta find a woman gotta find a woman gotta find a woman."

        Pumpkin, I've got one of those here, used it to shoot (AT) turtles on the lake in South Carolina. But these quarters are so close, and it looks so much like a real gun....I don't want to get in trouble with the neighbors or anybody else. We've got it too good here. I say just cuss at the acrobatic rats and know that's a part of life. Heck, I don't think you could ever kill 'em all, anyhow, They're all over. Everywhere. There's lot of food for them in these parts.

        Little bastards.
        That's when you pop a window screen out so you can shoot from your house and take advantage of all that food. It's like any other kind of hunting--you lure 'em out there and POW!
