well aren't i the lucky one? i have a red squirrel comming into my attached garage and ending up in the attic. the red squirrel has been lucky so far as i have only seen him during the day once. i want to give him a dose of "lead poisoning" but he hasn't kept our scheduled appointments...go figure. live trap and d-con hasn't worked yet so if you have any sure fire suggestions, i will try them. thanks, eh?
