Every other day we get a bunch of quail forging for food. Last year we had a series of four eagles picking at a dead white tail deer for about a week. Racoons and skunks have parted for the winter, but will certainly be back this spring. Oh yes, the cat brought us some gophers lately but hasn't been able to catch that little rabbit we saw a few weeks ago. I think he is eating the mice because he hasn't wanted much food lately. During the spring and summer the turkeys and peacocks show up on occasion. Wildlife....never ending supply. Love it all!!! |
If you have access to the attic to block them out, throw moth balls all over the attic and they will leave. we had flying squirrels and it didn't take long. The down side is you get some of the smell in your house. We just nailed some wire over the apex openings and have had no more problems with them. Unfortunately the stink bugs took their place this winter but I can live with them.

I was looking out the front living room window today and noticed a squirrel running across the yard in the snow was so cool to see. Also we have seen coyotes tracks in the snow and can hear them howling at night in the woods behind our house. I have seen squirrels, rabbits, stray cats and dogs around our yard. Inside: we have a shih tzu male dog and he is spoiled rotten Thanks again for sharing and this will be fun to see what types of animals are around our yards I have 4 cats and a dog, and a family of squirrels living in my attic! Can't afford to have them taken care of ($2000 to remove them, decontaminate the attic and seal off the entry points), and don't have the heart to kill them ourselves, so we let them be for the time being... |
I see plenty of deer...........maybe too many. No maybe about it. They can decimate a garden faster than You can plant one.I find bear and raccoon skat in the yard and saw a fox a couple of years ago.
