I also greatly reduced the squirrel population in the backyard. If by that you mean the squirrels got into the baits, I suggest either an air rifle, selective that, or a bait container with a rat sized hole that is too small for the squirrels. Unless you consider them vermin, of course. Thing about poisons is that mice die in the walls and you have a million flies. Another thing, the poison they use is coumerin, AKA warfarin, and is found in the supermarket under the name of D-Con. They sell the prepared baits for probably a tenth what the exterminator cost. If you want to pay through the nose, you could buy laser grade coumerin. Casady The bait stations were accessible to the squirrels, but that was fine. We had too damn many squirrels anyway. -- John H "The problem with Socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money." --Margaret Thatcher |
