In the continuing saga that is my kitchen calendar ( Bless you my loyal readers, the content here at River’s World is sometimes less than thought provoking ) we have now arrived at April.
.
.
The rodent featured this month seems to be knee deep in a pagan celebration of spring. But seeing that we live in Maine, where May can bring snow …. our resident red bitch from Hell is probably not celebrating in kind.
No, more than likely she’s gathering up dead grasses and leaves in anticipation of building a nest for her future demon offspring in our one of our eaves.

The battle continues.

Are you saying you hate squirrels – the dogs of the rodent family? Blasphemy!

I love all creatures, except one. A red squirrel bitch from Hell that chewed holes in our barn, lived in our attic, hid rotting fruit in our outdoor furniture, nested in our eaves and gave birth to a passle of progeny that we had to forcibly evict one by one. It’s been an ongoing battle for over a year. Heavily documented in blogs.

It’s been an ongoing saga for 2 years. Last summer was the worst. Next time I’m on my computer I’ll try to find you a link.

I think maybe she’s gone to greener pastures, since you haven’t seen her in a while. Lets hope that she might have made her new home in that eyesore of a tree house on your property line.

Siding with that little red demon will not be tolerated. When her rodent army rises, I need loyal allies.

Set up a video cam on your roof in the area where you think the leak is. Ms. Re Squirrel is bound to find the opening eventually, and then you’ll know exactly where the leak is. With any luck, hubby can seal the opening while the red devil is still inside, thereby trapping her and solving two problems with one fix….and since I like you, there’s no charge for this brilliant idea.

Trap her … inside the roof, hence our attic? Where she can chew through the ceiling and curl up next to us in bed? NO!

There will be absolutely no encouragement for her to take up permanent residence. No squirrel barns. No squirrel picnic tables. Nothing!!

😂 okay okay. It’s a no then. Shame, a picnic table would look lovely next to a red barn. Even cuter with a little umbrella.
