Patty, you live in Wisconsin. The squirrels aren't as smart up there, believe me. I used to live in Iowa, and those squirrels weren't as smart, either.

Now that I've moved to Florida, the squirrels HERE are not only smart, they're evil, too!

I gave up with the Havahart trap because it got to be too much trouble driving 10 miles into the country to dump them. It's against the law here to trap them and let them go someplace else in the city.

But then, like I said, Gainesville is a truly idiotic city. They won't let you cut down an oak tree if it's the hanging doom of death right over your bedroom, and even more idiotic, get this: it's LEGAL to buy fireworks here (to set off in the middle of the night when the Gators win, but don't get me started on that one), but it's ILLEGAL to set them off (although, believe me, after the Gator games, they DO set them off...).

In other words, while I love the weather in Florida, there are times when I wish I was back in Iowa where it was quiet and the squirrels were stupid...and fewer.
