I definitely hear some scratching and action in my attic. Squirrels, probably. Any suggestions of who to call? Thanks!

    I would call Dr. Peter Venkman or Dr. Raymond Stantz. Only as a last resort would I recommend Dr. Egon Spengler.

    Best wishes.

    hi. go to www.hsus.org
    (humane society) they have great info on how to dissuade squirrels (I love squirrels btw! but understand not wanting them in your attic). they have downloadable sheets probably under 'wildlife.'

    there's a woman there named laura simon who you can write to and I'm sure she can tell you what it may be you have there... and best actions to take.

    if you need her email addy, PM me.

    good luck!

    WMB (what manner of beast)?

    are you all saying that in park slope there are no city based programs that serve to educate a squirrel?

    possibly enrich all rodent kind's quality of life?

    provide a better coat for winter?

    shame on you all

    They are sooo annoying,You can call an exterminator, but several extermiators told me to put unscented mothballs in the attic or wherever they gather. It worked. They dont like the smell or something but the little varmints steer clear of mothballs.An exterminator will probably lay traps.Try the mothballs, worked for me.I mean i put a slew of them.
