many did you get today?

2 days, no captures. The video camera is flaky- but I've got video
of a blue jay and a chipmunk cleaning up the peantbutter. . . .

And several of a very acrobatic squirrel who has discovered that the
key is to go into the 'dunking' end, and don't slow down. Then he
pops out of the 'entrance' end and clans up the peanut butter he grabs
on the way through.

So the width of the barrel and length of the tube is important--- but
4" is plenty for 'my' squirrels.

I've been having some luck catching chipmunks in a 5 gallon bucket
with a handful of sunflower seeds thrown on the water's surface. So
I put some peanutbutter on some bits of Styrofoam and tossed them into
the barrel to see if I can entice him to go swimming.

Had my first fresh picked peach in 3 years yesterday. Heavenly.

there should be laws against killing animals just because you can..
one day a disease may look at you the same way.

just trap and relocate.........

Reply: Is that what you do? What do you actually do with the squirrels who
invade and tear up your property?

What's that, Sparky? You don't actually HAVE any squirrels where you live,
you just like to advise other people. Your life is so shallow and empty and
perfect that you have nothing else to do with your days than to tell others
what THEY should do?

I thought so.

You may go now.
