[Evans, Marv]

Had the same problem with ground squirrels on my property. I bought an air rifle and invited a couple of neighbors over with theirs. I think we eliminated around twenty of them that afternoon. Since then I've not had a problem except for a couple of new renegades each year. It seems like after you shoot one and leave it out for awhile, the others take notice and figure the area isn't a safe place to hang around.
