They are! Tree rat’s are the Devil’s spawn.
Taken individually, they are brainless little dingbat animals. But in bunches they get some kind of hive mind, and it wants to work evil. They will chew through aluminum siding, they will chew through galvanized steel builder’s screening, they will chew threw live electrical wiring. For no other reason than to plague you. They are the jihadists of the animal kingdom, working in suicide squads, eager for the chance to martyr themselves for their dark master against their enemies, the clean dry attic and the automobile.
Bell, book, and candle be damned. Poison, traps, dogs, and firepower. Hurtz rent-a-weasel. Kill them all and at best you’ll be able to fight their breeding rate to a standstill.
Quit it Drew! I’m laughing too hard!
The varmit company I used years ago wants $85 just to look now. I declined.
I now have a ‘milspec’ slingshot, 500 rounds of lead pellets for said slingshot. Going for the squirrels myself. Glad Grandpa took me squirrel hunting in the early 70s. I remember how to gut, skin, and cook ‘em. Got homemade BBQ sauce too.
MMMM, BBQ Roadkill.
Want an invite to my next BBQ Rich?
He does a great dish of fried squirrel brains! Zombie-riffic!
