Damn squirrels!

[Rose56]

I have a stoner squirrel that has developed a nasty addiction to the stickiest buds he can find. I have 3' tall chicken wire all around my grow and have tried every replant I could find even tried a cut up bar of irish spring someone suggested. I even tried wrapping them up in netting like christmas trees and today I watched him panic as he escaped from being inside the netting as I came out so I had to cut my girls 2-3 weeks early. Damn shame because this was probably my best grow in 8 years.

Put that cat to work.

Lol sorry but this is as close to trailer park boys as I've seen here so far

I Really hope you find a way through though mate

I would have trapped the squirrel. If it happens again, better fencing. They can be pretty destructive.

.22 rifle?

You were defeated by a squirrel. The shame the shame!


They are tough to deter for sure.

Get a dog.

My brothers dog is a squirrel destroyer, that dog will fuck the squirrel then eat the squirrel then poop out the squirrel, then the dog will eat the squirrel poop.

The dog will rain hellfire on all squirrels in the area, a beast of murderous intent, hellbent on destruction of any small wildlife that dares to invade to destroy your crop, a heat seeking missile of sharp teeth and violence.

Get a dog.

Don't shoot your eye out.

No shooting required for your renegade squirrel. Lean a couple of inch-diameter poles up against your plant, and set a number of inch-diameter snares along the top of each pole. You will catch the usual suspect in hours, or by the next day at the latest.

Then of course you will be obliged to pray for the soul of the departed, before using the furry critter as the main ingredient for a tasty dish of cajun squirrel pie.

You neglected to mention whether the dog terminates those pesky squirrels with EXTREME prejudice, or merely with a mild loathing, reluctantly mustered for the job at hand. Inquiring minds want to know.

I use hot pepper sauce. I just buy cheep dried hot peppers and cheep vinager. Let it steep for at least a day.

Put it on a spray bottle. Squirrles hate it.
You can add a bit of olive oil and spray the things they climb on to get to your plants. Don't spray your plants with the oil.

If you keep adding vinigar to your peppers it will recharge for months.

should of got a have a heart trap or a gun..depending on your beliefs...yeehaw ..squirell aint bad eatin..I have a varmint hunter pellet gun for quietly dispensing such animals...I also have a hunting liscense

 

[bigshrimp]

Its probably a red squirrel, fox squirrels are the ones that are good eats. Yeah those reds get in my walls of my house, chew holes through siding, scurry around at 730am. They are little fuckers.

One went for my tomatoes this year and would sit on the fence eating it dropping tomato bits all over my girls.

You have to commit to full scale genocide. Sooner the better before that little fucker starts breeding and passes on its taste for nuggets.

 

[Betterhaff]

That squirrel is good at selection. Take cuts next time.

 

[bigganjabud]

OK thinking about it .22 or a .177 should see him off for definite

LOL! Love the responses. My cats like buds too so they are no help. I was thinking of getting a trap at least I knew what kind of bait this sucker likes. Next year I will move my grow further away from the fence and the oak tree which it has used to gain access.

There was an old lady who lived down the road from me in the country, 25 years ago.. My closest neighbor, 1/4 mile away..
Seldom saw her though,, but when I did, she was in her front yard with a .22 rifle..
Every time she was shooting up into her oak tree..
Every time, 2 shots..
Every time, 2 squirrels fell..
She'd pick 'em up and carry 'em into her house...

If she's still alive, you need to get her out to your place next year!

Juts a plain rat trap. Put it in a box with a two inch hole.

 

[Noonin NorCal]

Try hanging some blood meal or bone meal, I'm not sure which one it is but it de tracts deer and I'm sure it would do the same for the little rats with tails also
