I really liked this squirrel trap:

It's catch alive, and it seems like fun.

Well, after spending around 7K for roof/attic repairs caused by those cute little fellers I gave up with the ÛÏhumaneÛ method of dispatch. ItÛªs against the law in Florida to transport squirrels to a different location. So I now use this:
Gamo Whisper Fusion PRO .177 Air Rifle with Scope
The raccoons or bears will eat the remains. 😎
Dude, your missing out on extreme "fly fishing for squirrels" tube it.
Too tame. It doesn't involve a gun, garbage disposal or gasoline...

Dang Unc, I'm surprised y'all Cash Boy's didn't come up with this? (you have to have a story about something similar, so hurry up and post it) 😉

I prefer .22 shorts. A little closer to a "whisper" and much more humane than flinging them 50 yards into the trunk of a tree. .

CanÛªt use ÛÏbulletsÛ, even shorts, against the law/homeowner association rules/ etc.
After sighting the scope in, this thing (Gamo) is remarkably accurate.

Huh? A .22 short is quieter??
How to clean the cat litter box?
Pour 1 cup gasoline into kitty litter.
Anchor a piece of string, above the box. Tie the other end to a nearby object, that is about 30' away, and 6' higher than kitty box. Take bottle rocket, and tape, and 2 key rings, which go on the string, so that rocket launches, down the string, and into kitty box, w gasoline.
It'll clean out a litter box!

Outdoors....................I hope.
For all you folks with an HOA that prohibits shooting the little darlings there is an alternative.
Fasten several #4 or #5 fishhooks with leaders about chest high on a tree trunk baited with either peanut butter or cheez-whiz. They are easier to get off the hook AFTER they quit thrashing about...
Awww...I can't kill mine!! :confused: They visit daily for their peanuts. Then they run back across the street to their home in the tree. One comes right up to me and takes the nuts right out of my hand. We named him Merle.
But my poor mother in law...She had several in her yard for years. Fed them, loved them, etc... Now she's pissed at them! 😡
Last week she went outside to start her car and it wouldn't start. Had to have it towed. Turns out her little buddies ate up the wiring under her car. Over $1000 in damages later and she has decided to not feed them anymore. Not sure if that will work, as they now will have her car as a fresh food source. I told her to drive it daily, maybe that will help. She bought some fox pee, peppermint oil, and other things to try to deter them. We'll see if it works.
:heart: Here is Merle. :heart:

You may change your mind about hand feeding. Especially after Mr./Mrs. squirrel bites the bejesus out of one of your fingers! 😉
