Rita, those squirrels are so voracious! I'll always remember a class on growing fruit and nut trees where the fellow teaching us told the story of his macadamia nut tree. He said "It is beautiful, healthy, blooms and makes nuts every year, and we never get to taste one. All we get are the fattest squirrels I've ever seen, waddling around with their little bellies dragging on the ground"

Also the Ag. agent over at our Extension office once told me "you don't want to know" when I asked him how the heck commercial nut and fruit growers keep the squirrels and raccoons away.
