My wife suggested firecrackers. I pointed out that the
grass and brush is pretty dry now and it might not be too
good an idea to set it on fire... even I have my limits.

Bummer. Fresh home grown tomatoes are wonderful; they make
the ones you buy in the store taste like genetically-enhanced
styrofoam in comparison.
We don't much of a squirrel problem, the predators take care of them.
The few that don't get eaten are the most paranoid squirrels I
have ever seen. BTW the larger squirrels are tasty, I used to
eat them when I was a poor college student.
