Squirrels are generally clever and persistent animals
In residential neighborhoods squirrels are notorious for
eating out of bird feeders, digging in potted plants either to bury or recover
seeds, and for inhabiting sheltered areas including attics. While many companies
sell bird feeders which are supposedly "squirrel-proof", very few of them really
are. Although squirrels are primarily arboreal (and, therefore, very good
climbers), they are also able to live in urban environments that are largely
free of trees.
Squirrels are sometimes also pests because they chew on various edible and inedible objects; a habit which helps keep the squirrel's teeth sharp and also wears them down (rodents' teeth grow continuously).
Homeowners in areas with a heavy squirrel population must keep attics and
basements carefully sealed to prevent property damage caused by nesting
squirrels. (A squirrel nest is known as a "drey", especially in Britain.)
Some homeowners resort to more interesting ways of dealing with this problem,
such as collecting and planting fur from pets (such as domestic cats and dogs)
in attics. This fur will indicate to nesting squirrels that a potential predator roams and will discourage habitation. Fake owls and scarecrows are generally
ignored by the animals, and the best way to prevent chewing on an object is to
coat it with something to make it undesirable: for instance a soft cloth or
chili pepper paste or powder. Squirrel trapping is also practiced to remove them
from residential areas.
Squirrels can be trained to be hand-fed. Because they
are able to cache surplus food, they will take as much food as is available.
Squirrels living in parks and campuses in cities have learned that humans are
typically a ready source of food. Hand feeding is not recommended, however,
because squirrels may carry plague or other animal-borne diseases. Even if they
do not carry disease, they often have a hard time telling fingertips from food,
and bites are painful.
