Speaking of critters......
What's the best way to get rid of squirrels?  Any commercial products out 
there?  Ideas?  I have a couple of large pecan trees.  Looks like I will 
have a bumper crop *if* I can keep the squirrels away.  They have been 
hitting them heavily so far.  Many, many cuttings on the ground of green 
pecans.  It's not many of the critters, prob 4-5, but they are doing some 
damage.

  I live in a subdivision, so the .22 cal or 16 ga. is out.  I don't care 
if I just run them off, kill them etc.  Just want my pecans left alone.

Thanks,
David Cole
