RLW, I appreciate your unusual suggestion but it would be easier to lace a bowl full of sunflowers or peanuts with poison if I wanted to kill all the little buggers.
(I may have to resort to something like that if they get too bad)
I admit I saw the first baby squirrel today, so that adds to the current over population in this area. 1 squirrel in the yard is cute, 9 turns into a problem.
I am going to stick to the chili powder for now since it works a little bit.
For the record....do you prefer them fried, grilled or baked??
