Not such a great idea- squirrel grabbin' Back when I was about 10, my best friend chased a fox squirrel across the yard, and the rodent headed for a window well-ground level of a neighbor's house (built 1928)-- When Dave reached his hand in there to grab the tree rat- it bit him on the thumb-and he had to go through 16 days of Hell- stomach area injections to prevent rabies- he survived- but by a hair's breath-- Don't screw with any rodent or varmint that carries rabies--ever!!
