Red Squirrel or Chip Monk

How to rid RV of rodents the small type. Caught a red squirrel last fall gave him a toss out the door to a tree, made very effort to break his neck as he hit the tree. Now it seems a relative has taken up residence. How do you get rid of them. I tried traps the little bugger eats the treat and escapes.

I would use a .22 with a CB load. Silent and deadly for rodents.

When you're done, please please post the pictures of your trailer with shotgun blasts in it. :)

I'm imagining an Elmer Fudd style event.

20 gauge. 12 gauge is much too destructive.

I foamed all the openings underneath. It was wide open around the sewage dump pipe and had large gaps around the vent pipes etc.
