About a month ago I did a blog on the squirrels that were taking our peaches off the trees and only eating a few bites off them. I decided to try some music to deter the little thieves. The old car radio placed into a five gallon bucket with it's speaker outside attached to the bucket and powered by a 12 volt car battery playing gospel music.
This music worked for a few days and the squirrels decided to feast on the pears. OK, you can have all the pears you want but stay away from the peaches. Squirrels are like kids, they don't listen.
The squirrel ring leader decided they were going to go for the peaches a few days later. Ring leader, " Hey guys we will get up early, about day break and go get some peaches for breakfast." What about that loud noise at the peach trees ask one low ranking cousin??
Leader, " Don't worry about that, I don't think it will hurt us." " I love to hear that noise said top squirrel.
Early the next morning Top squirrel assembled his troops high in the trees near the orchard with his plan of attack. Help guys follow me down and to the peach trees. I don't see any problems. The old man with a gun is still sawing logs.ZZZZZZZZZZZ's. Hey, look at those peaches laying on the ground!!!
BOOM,BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!!!!!! Retreat, retreat we been ambushed cried Old know it all??? Some of his troops didn't made it, four died of lead posioning. The remaining troops with the leader retreated deep into the woods and weren't seen for several days. Prehaps they are planning another mission to the orchard. In a few days it will be time to pick those peaches.
