Heck, I say get a wider diameter pvc and when he runs through it, cap it.

Of course, ideas seem simple till it's time to do them. Then chaos steps in..


LOL....


Whenever you do decide to take action you should invite everyone over to watch.:lol:
 
I'll tell ya what, if the squirrel is still in my house/attic when the tank tours roll around, my house can be a pit stop for a full blown-out hootenanny. Y'all can bring over whatever methods of removal you want. I'll provide food, beverage, and the video camera. It could be like a hillbilly poker run. Get a squirrel here, a bat, owl, or beaver from Pamela... Good fun.

I couldn't agree more, at the very least get the camera out, we all gotta see this one take place. :rollface:
 
that was quite entertaining. I'm glad I waited until after work - I would have been disruptive.

I'd start making friends with the squirrel - give it chocolate. After it associates you with food, maybe you could get it to follow food into a trap.

If you're renting that duplex (I think you said you were in a duplex), call your landlord and tell him there's a squirrel in the attic or hot water heater closet. He'd probably be interested in getting it outta there.
 
Well, the landlord said she'd have to get the time to see if there's a hole in the roof. I would imagine there's a hole. Or maybe it came in through the chimney? The chimney for our nonexistent fireplace and no-longer-working furnace (they're old duplexes). And she doesn't have a trap. I wonder how many are up there. I don't particularly want to get a trap, crawl up in the black attic, and set it for an animal that will be very bitter when I come to get it. And then since I don't have the heart to kill it, it will probably just run back into my attic. It's not hurting me, I'm not hurting it... It could cause some damage to the house, but my landlord knows.. Haha, am I doing a good job of passing responsibility? Lol, I don't want to get bitten!
 
I thought the end of the rat story was going to be like the one where the guy tried to kill a rodent in his house by throwing it in the fire pit. The gritter did die but not before it ran while on fire into his house and caught his whole house on fire. The house and rodent were a total loss.
 
Had to go to work, and upon return...... Had to check the thread. While I was reading, laughing, starting to dribble, I read ENID.
Sorta got to wondering then. Just when and where did this happen (address, month, year, time of day, etc.)? What type of gun used? Who was the shooter? Was the shell casing recovered? If not, where in the yard did this occur? What was done with the rat? Buried? Where? I think your post would work as a written statement, just need a signature. When will you be in Enid again?
 
Brook,

When I say damage, I guess I should have said attick Fires. Many homes burn down to the electrical damage done when the insulation is stripped from the cables. I had a bad problem with squirrels in my attick when I moved in. i also had a short in the electrical wire that luckily blew the breaker instead of sparking a fire. just be cautious in whichever approach you take.

Yeah, I know I need it out. But I think the roof (or however it came in) needs to be fixed first or there's no need in catching them. I doubt we only have one. Especially since I saw what looked like back-up battle crying outside my house.

I honestly don't remember the shooter's name. My friend and I would describe him as the guy with nice jeans. Lol, does that help? Haha, he did have nice jeans.. And I'm not sure what my mom did with the rat. Typically her means of removal of a dead animal (hampster, iguana, etc) is to put it in a baggy and freeze it for trash day so it doesn't smell and she doesn't try to plant something where she buried it, lol. We're a strange family. Are you from Enid?
 
Brook,

Beware, JR is an Enid cop. he is looking for another collar. He is probably trying to get some sort of year end bonus for cracking crime over the internet.
 
Just be thankful that all you have to deal with is a nice little cute squirrel and not one of these hardend prarie dogs!

Well, this is day 2 of Moose being MIA.

Ya know, I wonder how many times it's been in the house without us knowing... My cat was pawing under the door to get the squirrel.. Was he in my house and she chased him back into the closet? I just assumed some of the insulation fell on the ground and she was pawing at it (since I saw her playing with some). But I do think she saw him. Haha, I would have had a heart attack if I woke up in the morning, opened my door, and had a squirrel looking at me. I mean, that is pretty much what happened... But out in the open house would have been a little more confusing/scary.
 
Awww Russ.... 1 more by years end and I get a toaster!

Brook,

Be patient. You will more than likely wake up one of these mornings and have your new friend curled up on the pillow next to you.
Have you checked the outside of the house for openings? Also, if your house is not on a slab, it may be entering from under the house.
Like mentioned before, might have your wiring checked just for peace of mind. You really don't want an electrical fire.
 
hey, JR. If you just need one more, go to 15th and Elm and bust the meth house. Also one on 16th and Elm chunks their beer bottles in the neighbors driveway. I can find something with another one around there too, surely my brother-in-law is up to no good! hehehe. His best friend is EPD too, so I am sure he has all bases covered though. Helps to have pals high up. ;-)
 
Sorry, I work West of Van Buren and South of Chestnut. I don't get over to the East side too often.
 
:lmao: Well, even though I'm slammed for work right now as I came back from vacation, that was well worth reading through. That rat must have been through hell and back before Sheri even got it ;) Wouldn't an exorcism have been more appropriate?
