So awhile ago I made some complaints that a squirrel was living in my roof. I have seen him on the roof, and can hear him from all the rooms in the house thumping around when he's inside. So an exterminator comes out, and says to me well where's the hole he's getting into on the roof. I say um I have no idea, I didn't go up on the roof to investigate. He laughs at me and says it's probably just a mouse and there wasn't anything he could do since I didnt know where the hole was. Now there is a terrible stink in my home, and my hubby said he thought it was a dead squirrel in the roof. UGH. So now when I call they are probably going to just ignore me, or not look into it. I am so fed up here, what would you do in my situation?

I had to battle one earlier in the shed. So there I was going into the shed to get some work stuff out I had to back. I heard a noise and saw a squirrel, we stared at each other for a second and he hid. I grabbed a rake and rattled it around to see if I could scare him out, so of course he darted right at me, with gladiator like skill I lifted the metal rack and tried to smash it's head in, but alas the quickness of the squirrel was superior to mine and he ran away. I looked to see where he went and he was standing by the recycle cans so I tried to scare him away and run up the tree he was next to, instead he ran back on the porch, behind me and back into the shed. I watched as he scaled the items in the shed and up to the rafters and into a hole leading into the roof of the front overhang. That was the second time I've had a run-in with a squirrel in the shed. The first time it jumped from the rafters like a kamikaze pilot and struck me in the chest leaving wee little paw marks on my shirt. I hate squirrels.

It is base housing right?? I would make my husband go and complain until someone got out there and figured out what the problem was! Who wants to live in a smelly house?? Tell your hubby to go and complain until something gets done, oh he just left didn't he?? I guess if I had to deal with it I would call every day and let them know there is still a problem, just annoy them until they fix it =)
