have about 15 of them in my yard that I will gladly give to anyone who wants them!
They eat my new plants; eat all the pecans before I can get to them; eat the vegetables, especially the tomatoes and peppers!
They may be cute but in my neighborhood we are overrun with them and they are definitely a nuisance!

He or she is a cutie. We have so many squirrels here- red, brown and black ones. There was 3 of them that over-wintered in our trees. They did very well in the so cold, snowy and icy weather. Now they have invited their friends to join them. I am glad to have them as long as they leave the bird feeders alone.

Hate to ruffle your feathers but these creatures are cute to look at in other people's yards…not mine! They destroy and chew through the sides of garages, screen doors, windows, [ I had one chew through my kitchen window and was sitting on my newly washed quilt in the wash room! They are so destructive ! Our daughter calls them "land rats'!
