You would not smile if the squirrels in your loft ate their way through your security and fire alarm wiring and then start on the house's electrical wiring, leaving bare copper wires stretched across the rafters in your house. Do I need to explain the extent of the danger that put the inhabitants of the house in?
I do not dislike squirrels, and, as I said after our invasion, once remedial work was undertaken, we have not had a problem, but repairing all the damage that they did to our house ran into £000s, which was not all covered by insurance. I would also like, just once, to be able to eat some of the nuts from either our hazel tree or the walnut. In over 20 years we have not seen one whole nut, still less eaten one.
