Baby squirrel

bump.

funny thread.

also, this morning, I ousted the squirrel. It had been encroaching on our attic storage area thru that hole in jinx's picture ( red circle ) I put sturdy 1/2" wire screen in the holes that were affording the squirrel access to our attic this morning. then I lugged the 50lb shop vac up 3 flights from the basement to the attic, and cleaned up the tragic mess the little bastard had made in our storage attic. (s)he still has access to the small area in the eaves to shelter, but can no longer enter our actual attic thru that hole.

I may still seal that exterior entry point.....but i don't relish climbing an aluminum ladder that is rated for 250 lbs in cold weather. maybe in the spring when I hopefully weigh something close to that...and the aluminum is less brittle due to sub freezing temps.
