Guest guest Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 My husband used a BB gun and the gray squirrel that we used to have moved on. Of course the husband was a pretty good shot and it got tired of being hit (didn’t kill it obviously…but hurt it enough to realize that “hey, this isn’t paradise”). Now we get an occasional red squirrel which aren’t as bad…and they are extremely territorial. Lisa P.S. A slingshot might also work – I use that on the Canada geese to “remind” them that they are not wanted on my grass…and for them to use the abundance of grass across the pond! It works (although in the beginning you have to be at them quite diligently) herbal remedies [herbal remedies ] On Behalf Of Christelti Monday, April 05, 2010 9:11 AM To: herbal remedies {Herbal Remedies} squirrels Does anyone know how to keep these critters away? I try to grow as much as I can in pots and trays on my screened patio. But growing sunflower seeds is impossible. The squirrels ate holes in my screen to get in and make a mess out of my trays every time. And I live in a condo on the second floor. I am so frustrated. Any ideas from anyone what to do about that?

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 Thanks for the reply to my squirrel question. Animals are not allowed in my condo .Therefore cats are out. I never knew squirrels would come up 2 stories on a concrete wall,eat holes through the screen to get to my balcony to chomp on my planted sunflower seeds.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Lisa, That reminded me of my hubby also shooting bbguns on the squirrel. But this squirrel is smart. If it sees me, he pays no attention and totally disregards me. If he sees my husband, he scampers away.
