Default Noisy squirrel in my attic. How do I get it out?

you get rid of it?


A couple of years ago I turned my mountain vacation cabin into my
home. The attic was infested with squirrels. Several bait boxes of
D-con inside the attic and a nice pellet gun outside took care of the
problem in a few weeks.

I highly recommend both parts of the solution. Squirrels will eat
D-con about as well as rats do. And even the most dedicated
house-squatters have to come out to ferriage. That's where the
pellet gun comes in. There's a nice one available, complete with
scope, at Wallyworld for under $100.


Beware. You mustn't shoot squirrels out of season or without a license.
