Squirrel War II

.

Well, I officially declared Squirrel War II last night. I announced that the master trapper is after those bush tailed varmints again with a vengeance. So the war begins.

Squirrel War II

.

Last night I woke up to the sound of squirrels fighting in my attic so I declared war on the squirrels today. The first time I declared war on them, I learned how to trap them and hauled 282 of the pesky little bush tails to a place we ended up calling squirrelville.

 

Come on Bucky, scream louder, old Bill hasn’t even started yelling yet.

 

I have seen an over abundance of the acorn crackers around our neighborhood lately, so it is time again to thin them back down to some livable level. I dug out the old trap and the can of sunflower seeds and set the trap this morning. In 30 minutes, I had trapped my first squirrel of Squirrel War II. So about once a week, I will report how the war is going and the current count of squirrels trapped and hauled to squirrelville. I wish I could just destroy them when I trap them, but I just don’t have it in me without feeling bad about it. I guess I could skin them and cook them up like chicken on a stick and make me a squirrel skin hat, but I guess I’ll wait until forced to live that way by the economy. For now, it’s going to be trap and release far away from home.

OK boys, if you get me angry enough, I’m going to skin you, eat you and wear your skins as my clothes.

 

 

 

It’s now day 2 of Squirrel War II and I have trapped squirrel number 2. We hauled him to Squirrelville and released him. Here’s a couple of pictures of day 2 live war action.
