I finally think I'm figuring it out. I bait the traps with peanut butter. Psycho Squirrel is able to defeat the triggering mechanism on the traps and scarf up the peanut butter unmolested.

However, when this happens Psycho does not commit his deprivations on my tomatoes (Probably his teeny little teeth are stuck together?).

I may have to make up one of those thermite bombs and rig up a triggering mechanism to a wad of peanut butter.

I'm beginning to feel like Bill Murray in "Caddy Shack."

Varmint Killer

Carl Spackler: License to kill gophers by the government of the United Nations. Man, free to kill gophers at will. To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will never quit - ever. They're like the Viet Cong - Varmint Cong. So you have to fall back on superior intelligence and superior firepower. And that's all she wrote.

You're being blackmailed by a squirrel!

"Give me peanut butter or I take your tomatoes!" ;-)

The trick will be to place the peanut butter further and further away, leading out to open lawn where DA HAWK can spot his little gray delectible carcass.

Like the man said, "So you have to fall back on superior intelligence and superior firepower. And that's all she wrote."

racoon squirrel, whatever. they're all a bunch of bandits.
granted some are obviously more well endowed then others.

Yeah, ... It has a Havahart trap, a rat trap, a bunch of tomato plants, and some stark raving loony muttering something like "I'll get you you little b@st@rd, and your little raccoon too!"

course if u keep this up and psyco gets a big enough following, actually offing the guy may bring u some flak.

I gotta catch his miserable &#(@&%^ arse first! I've never even seen the little sh*t, just the devastation he leaves behind. I'm beginning to suspect he weighs in around 15 pounds and is about two free long. This would be consistent with missing tomatoes and half a jar of peanut butter.

Are you sure it's a squirrel? We have tons of them. I gave up and just cut down my apricot tree - I never tasted one despite years of battles. They've never touched my tomatoes though.

That friggin' rat on the other hand...

squirrel thats whats for dinner
Barbecued Squirrel

Put some slices of fat bacon in an oven. Lay the squirrels on top of them and lay two slices of bacon on the top. Put them in the oven and let them cook until done. (sorry, no time or temperature specified) Lay them on a dish and set near the fire. Take out the bacon, sprinkle one spoonful of flour in the gravy and let it brown. Then pour in one teacup of water, one tablespoonful of butter and put some tomato or walnut catsup. Let it cool, then pour it over the squirrel.
