If squirrels didn't have bushy tails, people would call them rats. I pay no mind to folks who say "but their so cute" I had them do so much damage to one of my rigs it took me weeks to repair. They chewed entirely through the main wiring harness on my E 350 based Jayco. That harness is as big around as your wrist and a couple hundred wires. After you splice all those, you won't have any love left for those tree rats. There are a number of ways to get rid of them. Search youtube. Here's one and there are many others.
I like the squirrel pole idea, but there are way too many squirrels. I'd never even put a dent in the population.
They haven't chewed any wires yet. Just hoses. They chewed through my extend-a-stay tank hose a few weeks ago. I don't have any evidence that they chewed through the air lines yet, but there can't really be any other logical explanation other than a line popping off (which has never happened before - they're all compression fittings and very tight).
