  • I went off about this on Facebook yesterday.

    What is the deal with all the cool animals being in far eastern Iowa? Decorah and Fredricksburg get bears. Dubuque guy has a cotdamn zebra and parrot.

    What do I have in Parkersburg? Nothing cool. I got stupid rabbits and dumb chipmunks that dig holes in my lawn. Buncha bullspit.

    Point of Clarification: Those arent chipmunks. They are, presumably, Thirteen-Lined Ground Squirrels. AKA Squinneys. First photo: Squinney Second Photo: Chipmunk.

    This is very important.

  • Bears are cute but I don't really want them wandering around my backyard, Plus it's just one more animal that would get hit by my car.

    My bad. You're right the first one. That's the bastard digging holes and running all around the place like they own it.

    Regular squirrels I like. They're cool with me. These other guys.... Don't like 'em. Might like 'em better if they weren't hole diggers/

    If you're interested, rat traps w/peanut butter work very well with "Thirteen-Lined Ground Squirrels"

    I personally use Tomcat brand...

    So will my 10/22.

    But I appreciate the advice. Say I can't hit them with said rifle. Can you get these at any hardware store?

    Sorry Wise. I know more now than I did a hour ago though.

    It's not much, but it's a start.

    I got em at Menards. I think they're like $5-6. Oh, I also tie on two strings attached to lanscaping fabric pins. Had a fox/coyote/something carry one off once.

    I'll do it to. Cup of coffee and a smoke. Robe open and house shoes on. Screaming at rodents in my yard while cars slowly cruise by. #smalltownliving
