Palm nuts or squirrels?

Easy solution. Have-a-heart trap from Amazon for 26 bucks. They are easy to trap and relocate to "greener" pastures. If you take them to a wooded area, they will not return. To squirrels, one place is as good as another if they have a food source.

I understand your problem, and...we may be crazy but...wait for it, wAit for it...it’s coming.
We put a few black plastic forks stuck in the ground around the beds, teeth side up. Honestly the squirrels avoid our yard mostly. We see them running all around and they do come across for a few minutes. But they leave pretty quickly. They must think it’s the teeth of a predator. A few neighbors have noticed and think we are nutty. But that’s ok. Lol!

About every oak around here produces acorns.

Make sure that you don't have anything inside your screen that they would want; grease trap in the grill, birdseed, pet food, etc. If there's no reason to get inside, they won't.

I can read the headlines now, Man get beat to death at square, accused gets 6 months probation, other gets charges dropped. Man caught relocating nuisance squirrel gets 6 months in jail.

In fall and before mating season squirrels look for shelter, food has nothing to do with it.

I had some squirrels get into my attic in my previous home so I put up cage traps, put peanut butter in the trap and caught 4 of them. Took them to the lake and drowned them since they would come back even if released a few miles from the house. |

True. I just wonder why the squirrels around here compared to the ones up north are smaller, skinnier, and their tails are not as fluffed and full. Just an observance.

Diet and grooming.

Yep, good point. I forgot maybe the little fellows are running around searching out sucking down the remaining alcohol from all those nips villagers throw out !

I've never seen any empty nip bottles on the ground in TV.
