Well…I guess no good deed goes unpunished…as you know I have been feeding the squirrels a bit around here but mostly the black and grey ones although I do have the normal brown ones here sometimes…and I have planted sunflowers with the intent of cutting the heads off them when they ripen and leaving them out for the birds and squirrels to eat… but that is after they mature and I get the chance to enjoy them…but today, a gang of the damn brown squirrels attacked three of the biggest ones and killed them just to get to immature seeds that the black and grey squirrels have left alone…so I threw rocks at them and hit one of them and then sprayed the remaining small ones with vinegar to try to keep them away and I hope that works since I ran out of rocks to throw….oh, and I had to tear the lattice off the front steps to get at a new den that some damn groundhog dug under the steps…so I gassed it with a mix of bleach and ammonia again and then filled the dirt back in and left the lattice loose so I can get in there and kill the damn thing when I see it…if the gas doesn’t work, I’m going to try to drown the damn thing with the hose tomorrow….need to replace the lattice with boards so nothing can get in or out and that will stop this damn animal….cripes<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
