    The search for the best squirrel control method has been going on for generations and all kinds of squirrel repellents have come and gone. There are, however, some general tips that may prove helpful.
    * Place a two-foot wide band made of metal around the trunk of your trees. Position it about six feet above the ground. This technique is effective in squirrel-proofing the trees that are the most likely homes for these unwanted pests. Like this you can share your tips also to me, it help everyone, post your comments and suggestion also, thank you

    I would suggest keeping all food opportunities away. Don’t leave pet food out. Keep all trash cans covered, be careful where you place your bird feeders. Squirrels are very opportunistic feeders.

    It's too bad that first photograph isn't a bit larger.

    Maybe it was taken with another tiny camera similar to the one the squirrel is holding.
