Yesterday I was out puttering around the new addition and heard some
skittering above the ceiling panels of a small porch off the side of
the house that is not entirely finished. There are some small openings
which I have been thinking to finish, but other things have had higher
priority. Anyway, I took a stick and started beating on it, and could
hear all kinds of activity, then these things started shooting out.
At first I thought they were birds as they were flying off to the
trees nearby. Then I look and see it was a bunch of little flying
squirrels. I had never seen any of those things around here. Aside
from being vermin in the ceiling of the porch, they were actually
quite cool to see "fly." I will go pound on the ceiling again to make
sure they are gone. I figure they can go find some other place to camp.
They are cute. My experience has been that once established they
are hard to get rid of. Here in WV if you think there is one in the
ceiling there are ten. I use a live trap baited with walnut pieces. It
usually takes weeks to get them all.
