squirrels - 06/25/12 09:01 PM
I have been called in to a apartment complex today.The issue is squirrels have been eating at lease one vehicle ( cars). They have been munching on wires,removing hood insulation/lining + chewing on the coolant container and lines.
As of today they have carted away 29 squirrels with out stopping the Ford feast.
My suggestion was location/location/location.1 Get the cages were the culprit(s) need to bump into or climb over the cages to get at the engine compartment.
2 Remove the hood insulation/sound damper. This is probably used for nesting material. If the nesting material is gone at least some of the reason for the squirrels presence is also gone.
The apartment staff seemed for the most part disappointed in my suggestions. They want a permanent squirrel deterrent.
I need some suggestions!
thanks much Bob
