Man Vs. Wild


In the saga of Kenny vs. Squirrel: Squirrel 2, Kenny 1.

After the debacle of the failed CD Blockade, a Blindingly Bright Idea came to light. He would add MORE CDS to the hole, to make it extra-extra snug.

So he did.

And the squirrels?

Laughed and laughed and laughed some more. And then crawled through the hole and snuggled up for another night inside the cozy confines of the Parma Palace.

Finally? My DIY'er decided to get something a little more hardy than music. And a plywood board was located. And inserted over the hole.

Some CDs were still used in the making of the blockade, to snug it up. They were the perfect height for snugging the board.

We think the squirrels have been defeated. There is probably still space for the mouse to get in, however, as they can fit through a hole the size of a dime. We'll have to fill the holes with foam, once we determine that the barricade holds.

I will probably have to take the board and get it cut to not look so hillbilly jacked up, however it is difficult to see in it's current position. One thing at a time.

When we pulled in the driveway yesterday afternoon? A very disgruntled squirrel was poised on the rooftop of the garage, looking towards his former doorway, with a WTF bubble over his head.

That seems like animal abuse to me. If you're going to give the guy CDs, at least give them something to play them with.
