[TR] Shop pests

[Rye Livingston]

I get that some people what to be humane to squirrels, even though they are rodents, but trapping them and relocating them is just passing the problem to somebody else.  You also don't want to use poison as some may die outside, now you've got the next animal up on the food chain that eats it and they get sick and die, like a coyote, bobcat, or what ever you have in your neighborhood.

Good luck,

Rye

Most of you have heard this already.  In 2004 I found my rusted out project 3A where it had squatted on rotting tires in a shed in New York for 25 years.  During that time racoons had used the engine bay as a outhouse.  3 inches of racoon poop everywhere.  As I beat the drums trying to unlock the brakes, a cloud of fecal dust wafted around my head.  

Oh well, I understand they once used whale snot to make perfume.

But I'm all for eating racoons and squirrels now.

One ate the main wiring harness on my TR2 flush with the firewall.

Take them far away or they can come back. I had one with a split tail that came back twice. First time, didn't believe it and painted him with pink landscapers paint.  A few days later, good old pink was back.  Took em all across the river after that.
