I am proposing to rout some squirrels from the space over my living
room ceiling before winter sets in. The point of entry is known and I
propose to set a Have-a-Heart in front of the opening to trap them as
they emerge. The opening will then be sealed.
My question is this: Is there any danger of trapping babies at
this season? I want to avoid trapping *anything* at all cost for
obvious reasons
Also, if anyone has alternate methods for trapping or killing, I'd
appreciate hearing.
Info much appreciated.
Thanks!
Frank
P.S. I do realize that calling an exterminator is an option but
most people I know haven't had good luck with them and they can
be expensive!
Cover the opening with heavy hardware cloth and purchase some DCon.
Squirrels can do a lot of damage, plus they breed so quickly some
folks call them "tree rats.".
