This is not good.

As you know, we have always had a resident red squirrel menace.

.

.

I’m sure this isn’t the original terror from years ago, but one of her numerous demon offspring.

.

.

She teases the cat, poops on the patio furniture…

.

.

Shreds the deck posts, excavates passages through the woodshed walls, chews holes in the man cave/Barn Mahal, burrows into the house eaves and builds nests everywhere to continue her accursed family.

.

.

I know this because…

.

.

We’re knee deep in the destructive little bastards right now.

.

.

Not good!

Not good at all….

We’re doomed.

As many of you know, we’ve battled a certain red squirrel in the past.

.

.

She’s chewed holes in our barn, our garage and our wood shed.

.

.

She’s gnawed her way into the eaves of our home and given birth to a large brood we physically had to evict. She attacked my husband when he was cleaning gutters and built a nest in his truck engine, destroying wires that required it to be towed to the repair shop. I could go on, but I think you get the gist.

She’s a menace.

So the other day… when I saw she had a friend?

.

.

I was concerned, but before I could fully process the horror? I saw this…

.

.

Four!

There are now four red menaces in residence.

We’re doomed.

The bitch has moved back in!

The husband had to move my car, set up the ladder and climb into the garage crawl space to reach the leftover vinyl siding recently.

When he got up there? A surprise.

.

.

There was a suspicious hole in the siding box.

.

.

And nesting material strewn around the opening.

.

.

See all the insulation and stuffing to the left?, in between the rungs of the ladder?

.

.

You know what means.
