I'll find a way, Kabu. I always do.
Truthfully, the job I'm doing now is quite a challenge physically. I doubt I would be able to take a second one even if I wanted to!

This company is from the big city, but they so service us out here.
I expect transportation costs will be added to the invoice. It's the second time I've paid to patch up the areas where they enter, and I wanted to find a company who would give me a guarantee in writing that the job would be done right

When I worked with the kids in the street, many of them had pet rats.
It's amazing how intelligent those creatures are!

The thing is - they don't know they are causing damage. They are
just there to make a cosy home for themselves during our harsh winters. I could never willfully hurt them

No doubt, Pat_B, but we still have lots of snow out here and it
would be difficult for them to get up to the roof right now. The little rascals already have caused damage - I find pieces of insulation lying around.

Good Afternoon
Oh my! I can just imagine how I would feel about this situation. Roy is always afraid that the squirrels and chipmunks are going to get in. I'm surprised the company can't come out until April 6, I'm afraid the squirrels could do more damage by then. I hope they don't get down into your living space. I have to say that you are truly a good person to worry about the welfare of the squirrels. I'm not sure who we would call if something like this happens at our house. I wonder if we have rescue companies around here?

Well, one cannot help but admire you. I don't think I would have been so
conscientious. Although squirrels have never been a problem here. I shiver when I
think as a young boy I would at times make little squeaky noises over a rat hole in
an old shed and wait until the young rats peeped out of the hole. My innocence
deteriated in time.

Good evening
I think that it's wonderful of you to take care that they are not harmed even though they are causing damage to your home. My backyard squirrels have yet to come into my house, but they have a tendency to be a bit destructive around my flowers as they search for long ago buried peanuts, walnuts, and acorns. In the meantime, good luck with your squirrel dilemma.

If the squirrel rescuers are not coming until April 6, you will have more
stories to share. I hope they don't cause too much damage.
