Aguilla Colibri in a .22 rifle. Make less noise than a pellet gun and hit harder. One season the gophers (ground squirrels) had a population explosion and invaded my garden. Not supposed to shoot anything in town so I sat inside the garden shed or on the deck where nobody could see me and sniped the little bastids.

I had mice eat the wires on my Toyota Tacoma.
$3500 later it was fixed.
The dealer recommended Fresh Cab.
It is sold at the local Ace Hdwe.
I put one under the hood and one in the glove box and no more trouble.
It has worker for 5 yrs.

James how come you're not out with the ole smoke pole this morning ?
Should have been, but haven't seen a buck here that has gotten me excited. Had to deliver something I sold to an Amish fellow early this morning, and decided that money was better than sitting in a stand just to kill time. I'm not a big fan of blackpowder hunting anyway. I don't like to have to do all that cleaning afterwards.

I bait squirrels into my yard all winter. Of course I eat squirrels so there yo go Youre a smart man. Free toxin free meat, as long as neighbors arent putting out rat poison for them.

I put some corn on the pan of small traps to catch them when I was a kid. Be careful! I would catch them by one leg, the head, both legs, you never knew. Mom finally told me to knock it off, she was sick of cooking them.

I tolerated the red squirrels until they started climbing screens and chewing up my feeders.
I attributed this behavior to a lead deficiency and inoculated every one that showed up.
Apparently the rest got the memo as I haven't seen one in 6 months.

Go to Amazon and look up electric rat repellers. Find the ones with 5 gold star ratings, and buy three different ones. I figure each one will have a slightly different sound level.
Aim them at the car and it will be bye by to these rodents.
I did this for my Nissan a year ago, I had rats chewing on the wires, and building nests on top of the damn battery. Since I installed my Amazon repellers the rats have been gone.
