GOTTCHA!


A family of squirrels have made the life-altering mistake of nesting in our attic. Once we hear them rumbling around in the crawl space, I am on a mission. If you think a mouse in the attic can sound like an elephant, you can JUST IMAGINE what a family of squirrels sounds like---A VIRTUAL WILD WEST STAMPEDE! I will give them this credit, while the mice seem to be nocturnal---the squirrels sleep at night. It is not until the early morning hours, that I begin to hear them. Since I get up VERY early at least 3 mornings a week----they were discovered as they crawled down the drain pipe.
I am on a mission to catch and release FAR away from here. I am kind---I don't shoot them like most would and I do release all of them in the same "neighborhood" of trees. I won't tell you where I am releasing, but if you happen to notice a population explosion of the "Little Rodents" WELLLLLLL!
