My dad had a good laugh at it. He has had his battles with squirrels pilfering the birdseed on the pack porch for decades. His most interesting way of dispatching the annoying fuckers was building a metal grid wired to a switch that was plugged into the wall outlet, about 2 feet by 2 feet square, and setting a bowl of birdseed in the middle. Once a squirrel sat down at the bowl to munch away, he'd press the button and the poor sap would jump at least 3 feet in the air and scamper off! Sometimes even jump off the porch to the ground 20 feet below!
