stubby 175 Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Is this the first squirrel, or do you get them up there every year, if so, it may be better to invest in a kania, fixed to a plank of 6"x1" with a wire mesh tunnel, it could be fixed in position to a roof strutt and left there, it'll certainly be easier to set each time, and being "off the floor" safer if anyone else gets up in the loft space Quote Link to post
Wanna be farmer 0 Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 If i come up in the half term, i'll bring one of me Fenn traps and a tunnel up, it shouldn't take too long to get it. Often you don't even need to use bait, i trapped a squirel a little while ago with a Fenn and i just stuck the tunnel and trap next to a tree where i've seen a few squirells, but that's outside, never trapped one in a loft space though.

Hope you catch it before it does any damage. Andy Quote Link to post
