It never ends, I swear.

She most definitely is and judging by what’s scattered all over our lawn …
.

.
And stuck in our shrubbery…
.

She’s been busy.
It only took me a minute to find her latest project. I simply looked up….
.

And there was the proof. Waving at me like a flag in the breeze.

That little red bitch has chewed her way into our house… again! To be honest, I don’t even know what that vent is for, but I’m guessing it’s going to be filled with little red bitch offspring in no time flat.
Red Squirrel War IV will commence shortly.

I warned you–I told you to be nice to her–I told you to change your tatics–sugar (in your case living in Maine syrup) gets more than vinegar–try being sweet to Mrs Squirrel!!

Sometimes we need to be reminded that just because we’re bigger doesn’t mean it’s an easy victory. Children and squirrels remind us of that. Or raccoons. At least she seems to be a decent opponent.

She’s stubborn, persistent and completely unfazed by the silly human’s attempt to vanquish her. A truly worthy opponent, much as I hate to admit it.

You are truly lucky. Not only do you have a worthy opponent, but you have the ability to admit it. That means you don’t spend time pretending that the battle/war hasn’t already begun. Throw the gauntlet and take that red she-devil down!

Thus is the third time she’s chewed her way into our house. Last year she made a nest and had babies, that was a nightmare eviction!

You don’t know where the vent goes? So what’s the problem? Just make sure it doesn’t go further in the house!

I’m sure it hues into the house, or the attic at least. Why else would it be there? With my luck she’ll chew through the ceiling and land in bed with us.

Kick her ass out again and replace the vent with a metal one…..make her work twice as hard to try and build her nest. Two can place that game I say.

Have you actually seen her in the vent? It is far more accessible to a bird than to a squirrel, and far more tempting. How would she spot it, and how would she climb a plastic wall?

She climbs a cedar tree to the roof and hangs off the eave. I’ve seen her do it… and have seen her go in the vent as well. Don’t underestimate her determination to drive me nuts.

She had no concept of you. She is doing what comes naturally to her. All the emotion is yours. And I think you enjoy it immensely.

Hard to believe she chewed through that vent screen cover (unless it’s made out of plastic). Better get a titanium replacement.

One of the cats is really exploring his obnoxious, mischievous teenagerness lately, but at least I can give him a time-out, which may not curb the behavior but at least it gives me some satisfaction. You have no such recourse and I feel for you.
