    I saw that, but thought it meant Bonafide Scientist. Now you tell me, after I have a hole in my boat!

    The 155 is a nice choice but, carrying extra ammo at 98# each, plus fuse and powder could get old....lol. Have shoved a few in a tube myself.

    Mouse traps loaded w/peanut butter claimed all that ever bothered me. Two in the boat and 4 more nearby along wall edges and anything that looks like a hidey hole. Never took long.

    Squirrels are my problem. Lots of walnut and oak trees at my place. The squirrels chew thru the covers on my boats to stash their nuts. I have had seat cushions chewed by them, but not wiring. Haven't found a way to keep them out. Gonna try putting plastic owls on my boats to see if those keep them out.

    Never kill the black snakes, king snakes or rat snakes you have in or around your shed or house. They will take care of your problems. Dryer sheets work on keeping spiders away too!

    I've tried the plastic owls. No workie for us. I mostly use my 357 with shot loads. This works and it is entertaining. I don't kill all the squirrels, I just keep them "thinned out". We have lots of acorns for squirrels to feed on. The don't need to chew on my boat parts.
