squirrels coming to my bird feeder still have wolves
I know they are harmless but I rather not deal with them when I am cleaning the squirrels

I think I have a goddamn squirrel in between the walls of my house.

Do not poison. You will have a dead squrriel between your walls. Buddy's house stank for months.

Going squirrel hunting for the first time since moving away from ville platte. Very excited. Its been about 12 or so years since my last squirrel hunt.

Cause I read an article about it one time.
The "wolves" are not actually worms. They are some type of fly larve that can get under the skin of the squirrel but they do not penetrate or affect the meat. I'll see can I find it.

This isn't the one I read originally, but it says the same thing.
Whole article

There are control measures to prevent these infestations in squirrels, such as waiting until after a frost to hunt. Fiction.
Because these larvae are natural parasites found in nature, there are no treatments or precautions available. Many people enjoy feeding squirrels around the house, but concerns about spreading larvae from one infested squirrel to other squirrels are unfounded because the larvae are developing inside the host and are not contagious. Further, waiting until after a frost has nothing to do with bot flies. They emerge from their hosts after feeding for a number of weeks no matter what the weather is like.
In closing, squirrel bots or “wolves” are not harmful to humans or any of the natural host animals they infest. If you kill a squirrel with bot fly larvae, it is safe to consume the squirrel with no concerns of contracting disease. Certainly, during cleaning, you can cut around that particular area of squirrel meat. However, if you do not feel comfortable consuming a bot fly-infested squirrel, then properly dispose of the animal. Although there are no treatments or preventive measures to prevent bot fly infestation in squirrels, there is no need to be concerned. These flies are generally not harmful, so relax and enjoy the hunt.
