Re: Large Nest In Attic

I'm hoping the OP is Ok.

Maybe someone should go up in that attic and check on him?

Re: Large Nest In Attic

I was a nest of squirrels , about a dozen teenagers and one Big Bad Mamma . I sucked most of them up with a large shopvac real quick . I shot the rest with a 22 rifle with rat shot ammo .

Its like a small shotgun that shoots a 8 in patthern , silent , but deadly.

After that i covered the place with poison.

Re: Large Nest In Attic

Be careful cleaning it out. My house got infested with rodent mites and almost drove me crazy with bites and itching after I got rid of the varmits. The mites needed something else to eat on and picked me. It took me almost a year and I came damn close to burning the house down.
