MaryAnn, I can identify with your problem having oak trees on your property. I live on Oakland Ave, named for all the oaks along the street, which is about three blocks long. I don't have a problem with the squirrels like you all do, but when I am driving along the street, they will run into the street in front of my car and stand there not knowing where to run. I stop and wait for them to decide which way to go. I think they are cute, but I feel for you all because they seem to be little pests.
