Trap them. Mix peanut butter with sunflower seeds.

Then pop them. That way you're not inadvertently shooting towards homes or people.

I've eradicated the 10 acres or so that I have mostly cleared for my homesite of all squirrels. Those bastards caused me over $5k in vehicle damage a few years ago and I got pissed off and did everything. Traps, my wife running around with a 22 praying and spraying, got two outside cats and everything. frick those bastards. And yes, traps will catch them.

I like your style. That's a good idea!

And your reasoning is similar to mine. I'm easily $2200 into my rewiring project and I've spent probably 50 hours crawling around in my attic so far. I've got 23 circuits rewired - still have nine left - and all I want is revenge.
