Heh, heh, a couple of years ago, I was living in the top floor of a very nice victorian house. Built in like 1890. Well, every once in a while you could actually hear the squirrels in the kneewall area. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" />

Had to go up in the attic and install an FM antennae one day. As I was crawling over the insulation and rafters I felt this PAINFUL buzzing in my hand! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> Drew my hand back quickly and focused the flashlight near the area. You got it right, <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" /> squirrels had chewed off the entire insulative wrapper on BOTH wires!! Great. I also discovered that this was not the only area that they had struck.

Rewired using metal shielded romex, and...let's just say that the neighborhood experienced a squirrel population collapse. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/mrt.gif" alt="" /> (They drew first blood. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" />)

When I go back there and park, luckily, they've left my Trooper alone.
