Might have to get rid of a certain squirrel (lemmy.world)

This is the 3rd time I’ve had to pull my car’s blower fan. The two other times only had one walnut. So this is a whole new level of nonsense.

How else are they supposed to air dehydrate their acorns?

I shit you not... same thing happened in my wife's car with acorns!

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 years ago

If you insist on having a walnut-safe in your car and not filling it with your own walnuts, they're not going to let it go to waste!

Once you find the entrance (assuming you ever do), you might consider installing some metal screen over that.

Just a thought. Bad squirrel!

Is for bad times.

Hey, at least it wasn't the moose.

[–] Itd4n@ani.social 4 points 2 years ago

It’s curtains for moose and squirrel!

[–] UltraMagnus0001@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

make sure there's no food in the car

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

Easier said than done though, when the squirrels are literally bringing food into the car when you're away or asleep.

This came in through the ventilation ducts to get into the blower fan, didn't come in through the doors.
