Grim Reaper 1 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 also does any one have any good tips to get grey squirrels down from the trees i know one therebut i can't get a shot on it. Try using Nutella hazlenut flavour chocolate spread - smear it on something (anything really) that you find around the bottom of the tree and wait for the squizzer to come down (he will ) and because the spread is like thick treacle, he can't 'take it and run' sort of thing - he will have to stay there chewing at the stuff. This will give you the chance for a shot at it. Hope this helps you, it works for me every time. Regards, Grim. Quote Link to post
