Squirrel Relocation Plan Backfires
28th St. N., 6900 block, March 18. Responding to a report of a resident trapping squirrels in a back yard, an animal control officer met with the resident, who said that squirrels had been eating and destroying a garden. The resident had been trapping the animals (allegedly without a permit) and relocating them, but it did not seem to be working. The officer explained that when wildlife is removed, other wildlife moves in. The officer suggested placing a bucket of ammonia near the area as a deterrence.
I wonder if I could deter my co-workers by placing a bucket of ammonia outside my office door?
