[QUOTE="Wind7, post: 255186, member: 6388"] Yes, I went through kind of the same thing....[U]Three times![/U] 1. I went to turn on my heat for the winter months back in 2005 and it wouldn't ignite. My furnace has an electronic mechanism that opens a flue automatically before it can ignite however...There was a (very) dead squirrel blocking it from happening! So, I had to remove all the chimney tubing to get the poor little thing out. everything worked afterwards, thankfully. 2. 2009. Somehow a squirrel got into the basement of the house and it nearly destroyed all of my new windows! :mad: The seals of at least 2 windows had been chewed through at the bottom! I think It got in through an open garage window and basement door I purposefully left open so as to air out the basement. (It's a walk-in, unfinished basement with no access to the upper level of the house and has very little for regular air flow so, I air it out every season). I used the same type of trap you used only armed with peanut butter. 3. 2019 They made a home in my attic over the master bedroom and I had to call a professional to remove this one at the cost of $1,700.00 !! He caught the problem right off and then permanently sealed the out side holes it had made in my home! This was after he sanitized where it made it's nest and removed the scent so others wouldn't come around. So....Yeah....I've had my fill of these little Hairy Houdinis ! I live very near a wildlife refuge so, I never know what's going to be in my yard at any given time and these sorts of things can happen quite regularly! Unfortunately. [/QUOTE]
