Too Awesome! I've seen a video that used a clay pigeon launcher, but I really like the home made one using common household items. <<mental note to pick up some flexible tubing on the way home>> :D

I'm appalled and refuse to look...although I'm sure it's quite funny. :p

Too funny, although I'd like to see where the rodent landed.

I not a big fan of furry rodents either...but I simply trap my problem gophers and packrats in Havahart traps and then dispose of them with a pellet gun...I'll have to experiment with this idea though...

Perhaps a trebuchet would be as amusing.

Yet even more challenging and possibly more fun would be to try to take out a squirrel with a trebuchet! Think of the skill and luck involved! Oh what fun it could be - possibly a national sport!! :D:D

yeah, my son wants to build one, now that I've seen a squirrel launched, maybe I'll let him.

Anyone know how to keep skunks from digging under my shed?

I'd like to launch them a few yards away from mine.

A mother and her three little stinky offspring have taken up residence under my shed. I've flooded them out several times, but they keep coming back.

I'd trap them, but then I'd have to get rid of them.

Maybe a dead fall trap. Saw it on Survivorman so I just need to crush their stinky little skulls.

Here we go again..... another round of attacks on my fellow squirrels. :o

We will get our revenge. . . . when you least expect it :D
