How Much Is That Doggie-Broken Window?

Came home from work to this:

Jett, you see, is rather affronted by squirrels who think they can just go gallivant about his backyard.

This leads to him barking furiously and leaping at them with his paws hitting the glass, repeatedly.

Or in this case paws pushing the glass right through the frame.

This is the second time in two years that he broke this particular pane of glass.

I'm thinking we're going to replace it with a couple layers of poly-carbonate instead of glass this time.

I'm sorry I broke the glass, but you shoulda seen that flippin' squirrel jump when I busted the window!

Well, the hole is now boarded up, as we'd rather not air condition the backyard and it's going to be sweltering tomorrow. Now to go shop for some poly-carbonate.

Look! Squirrel!

We've been hearing noises in the attic this winter so we had a pest removal company do an inspection a couple weeks ago when we heard some serious movement in the wall.

Four entry points found in the roof, and there was evidence of a squirrel infestation. The holes were patched and a one-way trap placed on an exit to catch anything that might be still living there.

It has been empty.

Until now.

That's one of the evil red squirrels that infest this land. Not a good thing when they get in your attic as they like to chew wires and everything else these evil furry rats can get their teeth into.

Where there's one, there's probably more. Drat.
