RE: Squirrel!

in #prepping7 years ago

I had to smile at your photo. I my world I see real monkeys on the street lines and my day has many interruptions shutting windows because the naughty little things get in through the windows and steal whatever fruit or vegetables that they spy through the glass.

Sort:  

I am glad it brought a smile to your face, I don't know how you would handle them coming in stealing..

I run around closing windows . ha ha. They are awfully cute though, especially the babies. I am so tempted to feed them, but that is the worst thing one can do.

I could see that turning into a major issue if you get them in the habit of you feeding them!

I grew bananas and granadills,and pawpaw but alas, the only ones who enjoyed them were the monkeys, but they are destructive in the sense that they pick the green fruit, take a bite and throw the rest away. Now I grow lemons.

Is there no way to place nets around the trees to prevent them from getting to the fruit?

Oh I tried that but they are so destructive. They are so cunning in they way they operate in their troop. The bull taunts the dogs and keeps them occupied whilst the rest of the troop raid.
I console myself with the fact that we are the invaders into their territory and I can always buy a banana or two. HA HA.

That is interesting to learn!
