leave them some food outside
by putting up stainless steel like on the screen so the squirrels slide off
Spray the screen with hot pepper wax. Bonide makes it and probably other companies do too. When they start to gnaw they'll get a bunch of hot pepper which they do not like. You'll have to spray every day to keep it fresh and hot. Once you have broken the habit you can spray once a week for a while in case he tries in the future. After a month or so you can usually quit altogether. You can get the spray at a good lawn %26amp; garden center
eat out!@
Red pepper sprinkled around your sills.
Pellet gun.
Get a dog....or a gun....or even a cat, my sister's cats eat squirrels all the time.
Try spraying the screens with vinagar
I don't have any squirrel problem, but I do have a problem with the cats climbing the screens...tear them up in no time. I got some ';hardware cloth'; to cover the screening. It's a heavy gauge wire mesh, the squares per inch are almost the same as regular screening. It doesn't replace the regular screen, but protects it. You can screw or staple it down on the outside of your house, or if you want it to look better, make a frame for it that you can attach on the outside of the house. 44 cats have not been able to make a dent in this stuff, it's tough! It ought to be able to withstand a squirrel with ease.
You have to be joking. You actually have squirrels that are breaking and entering your home,,,,maybe they are after your nuts
get you shotgun ready
Try to chase them away
A .22?
get a rubber snake and put it where they are comin in
get a box of moth balls and set them like 4-5 to make the smell strong and set it in the window sills everyone the spuirrel is getting in to...this one stop the beast in his track also for addtional take the moth ball and rub it all over the screen really good .....good luck
I have never heard of this problem, but no doubt it exists. Do they want food, shelter or are they curious? Our squirrels come up to the back door so we will give them some seed. They are afraid to come into the house. But, they do come into the attic for warmth.
The guy next door to me trapped and killed them. I think you could buy a havahart trap which will not harm them and take them to an open space. Another option is that you can buy 50 lbs of birdseed at Wal-Mart and set it out and see if they stop trying to get into your house. If they want warmth, once I built a tiny wooden house and put an electric blanket in it for a pet. Perhaps that would work.
