getting rid of a flaming squirrel

[pusskin]

Can you shoot them? One squirrel in the garden is driving me nuts!!!!

Theres always only one, and he sits there looking at you and I'm sure he is smirking at me, staring me out. Help --can I buy an airgun?

He is causing havoc in my garden and driving us both mad.

Hello, what about buying a squirrel baffle to put on the pole? We have two feeders in our garden and both have baffles on which stops the squirrels getting to the feeders.
They are reasonably inexpensive to buy and of course will not kill anything. I expect once the squirrel realises it cannot get any more food it will give up and go next door where they are providing food.
I have to say I love squirrels and provide food for them as well as for the birds.

Leave the poor squirrel alone. He/she probably hates you too! Apart from that he's far cleverer than you in the first place.

I'd like to shoot all the ones on here who want to shoot the poor squirel !!

sue11, a squirrel baffle sounds a brilliant idea, as I cant see us wanting to kill a squirrel, just to try and stop it causing havoc.
Will google the sqirrel baffle as see what it is exactly. Thanks for all helpfull answers x

What is wrong with shooting and eating a squirrel?

How does that differ from eating chicken, beef, venison etc?

^^^ there are some things we just don't do. Next you'll be suggesting eating dogs and cats.
