Re: Re: meanest squirrel on earth

Dan-
Last year I had a squirel living under my deck -  fun to watch
especially after it had 6 babies.  the little ones were extra cautious
at first.  Then the fun and cuteness went away when all of them proceded
to eat almost everything in my garden.  they would take bites out of the
young pumpkins and eat the flowers.  we tried the "feed them something
better" method which seemed to worked.  they loved walnuts and cut up
apples. but you have to give them a big supply or they go right back at
the pumpkin plant.   I would try trapping them ( dead or alive )
Beth-
I also attract the birds during and after watering, mainly robins.  they
haven't done any damage to my plant/flowers/pumpkins at all.
