[Sca-cooks] OT-Squirrelly Issues

[grizly]

I saw a show on Home/Garden channel a yer ago that suggested something
similar.  Mix 3 parts tobasco or other hot chili sauce with water.  Place in
spray bottle and place liberally on the plants . . . try to avoid the
fruits, I suspect.  The capscaicin (sp) welps ward of insectoids as well as
avian and mammilian b at st@rds.  The tobacco infusion (nicotine jwater) works
for insects only, though.  Replace any of this after rain.

(Soapy water sprayed carefully on weeds will supposedly kill them off as
well)

I don't think so; it's obvious that the local squirrels have no fear
of the local "predators", unless they can detect the aroma of
digested squirrel proteins in my urine. Between the people that feed
them and the neighbor whose pellet gun ricocheted and hit my lady
wife, I'm sure they don't know what to think. But I'm considering
chili oil, water, and a drop or two of detergent in a Super Soaker
for those that miss the more subtle hints I've been leaving.
