An Open Letter to the Squirrel Trying to Chew Its Way Through My Roof

If you have squirrels and old roof, you might get a real kick out of William Sawalich's An Open Letter to the Squirrel Trying to Chew Its Way Through My Roof over at McSweeney's. We had some creature living in the ceiling our first winter in the house and it about drove us mad.

I am a HUGE McSweeney's fan...thanks for posting this! (My favorite house-related McSweeney's entry is "My Dream Kitchen")

love it!- don't know if you saw my post a month or so ago about "the most evil squirrel in all the land" chewing up 100 year old window sashes!

This cracked me up. I've tried everything from ultrasonic to cats... but reasoning - maybe this is the solution. Great post&thanks. AFanter
