For the last month I have had squirrels living in my attic.
I have just bought a trap for catching them alive. Are there any organizations that I can contact that will pick up these trapped squirrels? Thanks, Freckles |

A couple decades ago, a friend of my father got tired of the squirrel in his bird feeder, so he (military veteran, and lives in the country) shot it. Next day, same deal. He gave up after 300 squirrels. Please consult with some repair guys, and find out how they are getting in. Patch the holes. -- .. Christopher A. Young Learn about Jesus www.lds.org .. |

That's when you close up the holes in the attic. Are there any organizations that I can contact that will pick up these trapped squirrels? Did it not occur to you that nobody here has any idea where you live? Not even what country, let alone what city? Why would you think that they'd need to be handed over to someone after being caught? Do you not realize that squirrels have no problems living outdoors? You must be an american. Only americans are as dumb as you seem to be. |

This from the village idiot who doesn't know that squirrels do have a serious problem living outside when it's winter, 0F, the ground is covered with snow and they have no nest for shelter because they've been living in an attic that is now blocked. They will likely die. |

Here from a squirrel rehabilitator, who actually deals with squirrels, unlike you, idiot: http://www.squirrel-attic.com/removal.html " I consider trapping and moving ANY squirrel during the winter a potential death sentence, as they are being moved away from their shelter and from their food stores, just when they most desperately need both, and they are going to a place which most likely has residents with established territories and nest sites who will attempt to repel the intruder. In cases where the homeowner simply cannot leave the squirrel(s) there until spring, they need to get them to a rehabilitator who can keep them until it is safe to release them in the spring. " |

Why the hell can't you use a real news reader, instead of one designed
for use by children and developmentally-retarded people?

If the OP (who we'll never hear from again) was so concerned, he could put out sunflower seeds and peanuts for a week after the squirrels get evicted. Squirrels are plentiful enough, and hardy enough, to not need special care as he and you are anticipating. Animal shelters are stressed enough because of your failing economy. Let them focus their dwindling resources on animals that REALLY need care and rehabilitation. Animals that do not hibernate (like squirrels, rabbits, birds) are MUCH LESS reliant on shelter in the winter vs animals that hibernate. |

Squirrels are plentiful enough, and hardy enough, to not need special care as he and you are anticipating. I didn't say they needed "special care". I did say that you can't lock an animal out from it's nest in winter when it's 0F and expect it to survive. Animal shelters are stressed enough because of your failing economy. Let them focus their dwindling resources on animals that REALLY need care and rehabilitation. So now you're going to tell the squirrel rehabilitators and animal organizations what to do? Animals that do not hibernate (like squirrels, rabbits, birds) are MUCH LESS reliant on shelter in the winter vs animals that hibernate. The squirrel rehabilitator who actually deals with squirrels says you're wrong. |

Don't get so upset because the squirrel rehabilitator agrees with me. It's certainly not the first time you didn't know what you're talking about. You should be used to it. The OP said his squirrels were living for "about a month" in his attic. Where were they prior to that? It was still winter a month ago. He probably doesn't know how long they'be been there for sure. Means nothing. Where-ever it was - they can go back. Why don't you go back to whatever crap hole you emerged from? You contribute nothing in the way of home repair knowledge, just OT BS like a true troll. Oh, btw, genius, wherever is the word and it's not hyphenated. And you know what? The OP can throw some old furnature stuffing (or buy a bag of synthetic or cotton pillow stuffing) and throw pieces around his yard.

Squirrels are not endangered species and are not worthy (or needy) enough to warrant special handling after trapping / eviction from your attic. You're not worthy enough to be here either, but here you are, so there's that. |

What an absolute fool you are thinking that squirrels are such delicate creatures. Gee Homeguy what a bitter fool you have turned into. No longer able to carry on a civil discussion. I think you need to learn to use your kill file. So speaking of NJ and squirrels. We have flat topped fences around the back yard and year round the squirrels love to run back and forth using the top of the fence. So in last weeks heavy snow, I look at the fence and it has about 6 inches of snow piled up there. So then a squirrel goes by running along the side of the fence about 6 inches from the top. Made me laugh out loud. -- Dan Espen |

Scientists who have actually studied this say you're wrong: http://totalwildlifecontrol.com/reso...study-results/ And that study with poor survival was done in *summer*, an ideal time compared to winter when it's 10F and they have no nest for shelter. Good grief. I saw a squirrel running across my fence this morning, ignoring the 6" of snow on the ground. Yeah and it has a nice 2ft thick nest that it built months ago for shelter. The squirrel you dump off 2 miles away in the middle of nowhere, doesn't. The squirrel in your back yard has some idea where it's buried nuts so it can go look for them, too. |

They get calls about this all the time. The squirrel is NOT TRAPPED. It got in, and can get out. Its just comfortable in there. But it has to go out to find food and get water. If you can find the hole, and know it's OUTSIDE, plug the hole. (usually easier said than done). |

They get calls about this all the time. Trapping squirrels without a license is illegal in a number of jurisdictions. Better "Freckles" calls and asks the authorities before he contacts the humane society and they "rat" him out. (Couldn't resist) http://www.newsobserver.com/2011/05/...-trapping.html When someone suggested that relocating squirrels might be illegal, I immediately called the wildlife commission office and was put in touch with Greg Batts, district wildlife biologist. Yes, indeedy, he informed me, I was subject to a double whammy! Not only do I need a permit to trap squirrels; it's also illegal to relocate them to a public park or to any private property without permission of the landowner. With a permit, however, it's OK to trap, shoot, drown or dispose of the animals as one sees fit. But compassionately relocate them, as I was doing? That's a no-no. http://forum.canadianwoodworking.com...les-in-Ontario In Ontario, it is illegal to trap and relocate animals from the site where they were captured according to the Ministry of Natural Resources' Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act. a.. Improper use of a live trap, which results in animal suffering, could lead to animal cruelty charges through the Ontario SPCA Act. I ran into the same issue. -- Bobby G. |

And I know how to SNIP We tried trapping them and taking them for a ride across the river. After 70+ squirrel relocations one summer I kept count), I'd had enough so I shot the next one I saw. Didn't see a squirrel for months after that. I guess news travels quickly in the squirrel community +5 -- Tekkie |

Nothing but tree rats. Dump them off in some natural area as far away as possible. Preferably with the two pound wild life ID tag, and dump them about a mile from shore? -- .. Christopher A. Young Learn about Jesus www.lds.org .. |
