Any cure for Squirrels eating antenna cables
 

Antenna Group~

The squirrels here the my neighborhood have suddenly decided they like to
eat my coax and control cables. They seem to be particularly attracted to
the self-vulcanizing rubber used to seal the connections but they have eaten
some coax cables as well. Anyone know of a cure for this problem?

Thanks

Wildlife biologists have the problem of squirrels getting into their
bird-boxes and they use a product called tanglefoot in a 1 gallon paint can
that you trowel onto the post ot tree the squirrels(and raccons) use to make
their raids ...Those that fail to ignore this stick sh*t become irrevocably
glued where they step

It also is used to make glueboards for rodent trapping by troweling it onto
cardboard panels...Try a pest control product supplier

Be wary, that stuff is really STICKY and I don't know YET how to get it off,
and I been using it for years

A Squirrel Terrier ?

Our Char-Peis did a good job on the varmits.

Heard there is some stuff to keep horses from chomping up fences -- and any
other critter -- check the horse stores.

I can guarantee a pellet rifle works wonders. Does good with stray mutts
too.

Squirrels aka Tree Rats ate a hole in my roof twice and got into the attic..
Best solution is kill em with whatever it takes..
They have no natural enemies here and multiply like rats..
They're cute but destructive rodents..
good luck

I hope you're joking, Dan, and that you'd really try to get a
stray dog to your local rescue group or Humane Society.

But if you're NOT joking, I would just advise you not to
try shooting dogs in our neck of the woods.

Are squirrels edible ?

In Oklahoma squirrels are consider game animals and have a season and bag
limit. When I was in college about forty years one of my room mate was
shot and squirrels every chnace he got. He also roasted possum! I didn't
care for the taste of either.

In Texas, we have a legal squirrel hunting season. They are not
bad eatin' around a campfire after a day of clearing land.
