Got another squirrel today. That makes 5 this week. I have the feeling as soon a s a squirrel dies another one takes its territory.

Moved wood for part of the day today. Got my porch filled up for heating the house and then started on my sugaring stack under the new roof addition on the sugarshack. My goal back in the summer was to have it all done by today. Guess I was close. Hopefully will be done next week!
Time to rest.

You think you have a squirrel problem. Last fall i shot 79 of them things in my 4400 tap bush and i didnt even put a dent in them. And i was only shooting them while i was hanging line. About 30 of them that i shot were out of the same tree. I wish i had time to thin them out. The rats with bushy tails that is. And now something is chewing my PVC Valves. It is either the squirrels or maybe porkypines.
The are i'm getting them has about 70 taps. But wow u have too may squirrels. I wonder if rat traps with peanut butter would work.
