So sorry about your Xantho, Drew. Squirrels are a plague.

I declared a truce, and have been feeding the squirrels with, ah, birdfeeders. Well, I do have lots of pretty birds too, but the squirrels eat more seed than the birds do. Truth be told, it bought me a few extra mangoes off the tree this year, because the squirrels weren't quite so hungry, I think. Now, the raccoon is another story.

The big green feeder is supposedly "squirrel proof" but the birds spill so much seed out of it, the squirrels just mill around underneath with their fat little bellies dragging on the ground. The cat is no help whatsoever.
