After weeks of trying we got our squirrel!!!! We tried everything that people told us to do: gummy worms, crushed light bulbs, bleach, water down the hole, a rat trap and finally a capture trap. Nothing worked. Every day we would cover up the hole hoping our strategy would work. We were even willing to let him live in our yard, but he kept digging new holes. What a mess!!!
Then, today I came home and Jamie was in the garage with a stranglehold around his neck. I thought he was making some sort of choking motion at me as part of his love language to me, smile...
But, actually we caught our squirrel. He was really cute. I am glad none of the bad stuff we tried worked on him. Here is a picture of our baby, we named Ratatouille...
I just love his pink nose and big eyes...
Jamie took him to Sycamore Canyon Park - to explore the "possibilities" of a new home. I hope he does not get eaten by the coyotes or hawks.
Here he is high tailing it up the hill. I have to admit...I am gonna miss the little guy...boo hoo...
