Problem with Grey Squirrels?

We have a problem with grey squirrels coming in through the catflap to eat the catfood in the utility room. They only eat the dried food, not the wet varieties. Can anyone suggest a way to keep the squirrels out while still allowing our cats to go in and out as normal.Problem with Grey Squirrels?
Well...you have 2 options.





You can either seal the cat door or get rid of the squirrels.





We had a problem with squirrels getting into our attic. We trapped them with a humane squirrel trap and then set them free in a park about 2 miles from our home. We used Jiff Peanut Butter as bait. It took a couple of months, but the squirrels that were getting into our attic were finally gone.





If you're interested in a humane trap, here's one:

You might set the trap outside but near the cat door, so the squirrels using the door find the trap easily.





Also, wear gloves when you release the squirrels.Problem with Grey Squirrels?
Grey Squirrels are rats with long tails and good PR


The problem is that they are so attractive to the eye.


I could not kill them but the idea of a trap is a good one but do not release them in an area where there are red squirrels unlike the greys they are native to UK and endangered f
Get a squirrel trap they ,work very well,then humanely kill them.In the UK it's an offence to release squirrels to a new location so if we trap them they have to be disposed of
Think the only thing you can do is stop leaving the cat food out.


Feed them when you will be there.That should stop the squirrels.


Good Luck
Shoot them - they are classed as vermin - only way.





Any measure you put in place they will eventually get around....
Get one of those electronic cat flaps that work with a gadget on the cat's collar.





Either that or do what jamand suggests
Don't your cats catch and eat squirrels? Back to the drawing board...
