Don't underestimate Squirrels!

[Buly]

People have the same problem while boondocking along the Rincon in Ventura. What's in those hoses that attracts them to chew ?

Lots of plastics, wire insulation and rubber hoses are soy based products. It attracts rodents.
It is a wide spread problem
Google it.

Gunner hates squirrels.

I guess I've been poorer and/or more resourceful than you folks.

Squirrels are nothing more than rats with bushy tails. They are cuter however.

I doubt you have been poorer, rural Maine in the 60's was not overflowing with cash, and we did not have grey squirrels. We ate snowshoe hare instead. Upwards of 60 each winter. Even so, there is a lot more meat on rabbits then squirrel. And in the winter months we never saw fleas or ticks on them. We did not have central heat until 1967 and my father refused welfare. We had to be "resourceful" as you say.
