This past early spring I heard a serious scrambling noise over my

days when we have had a heat wave- 90's every day. So I just closed up
the suspected entry point (hole in board covering the eaves.) I can
easily remove the covering if necessary. My theory was that the
heat would have driven the varmint out for sure and that he was
no longer up there.

After the squirrel has had a few drinks and maybe listened to some
soft Frank Sinatra music.
