okay, I am about ready to get out the
Franchi SPAS-12 and start blasting away
at the ^$#@ pests !

does anyone have any proven methods
that work in keeping squirrels away
from the gutters & woodwork that they
happen to be mounted on ?

i've been doing nothing but patching
up holes they keep making by chewing
their way through wood to get into the
attic.

i've patched up pieces using steel
chicken wire, and wood wrapped in the
stuff - but still the *******s find
weaker exposed wood to bite thru (and
gain access to the attic).

i've gone from live traps, to poisoning
them with rat poison, and placing large
spring loaded rat traps around the gutters,
but still they keep coming !

my next strategy is using razor concertina
wire around the gutters/wood work.

Any suggestions on lethal kill methods that
can be deployed un-manned ? and/or ways to
keep those squirrels at bay ?

what would a "professional" exterminator do ?
