Launching them to a new zip code is not the answer.
Let them populate beyond their own food supply and starve them out. Or better yet completely remove their food supply ,cut all the nut trees down an plant Bradford pears. Communities everywhere are doing it.

That would be our newly released model, "Possum Tossum," available at your nearest Tractor Supply.

Friend of mine had them in the attic. Only way he stopped the was swiming lessons. He caught them and then brought them to a park. He kept catching and they were still in the attic. After I had him spray paint the tails did he catch wise to the fact they returned. After that Jackie put the traps in to a tub of water. He tried to teach them swiming with no success. After 11 failures there were no more in the attic. When we sealed the holes this time they stayed sealed. He claimed a man got to do what a man got to do. I had raccons getting in through vents. 2 boxes of moth flake chased them and hardware cloth kept them out. I was tempted to try the swiming lessons but it would have been catching the whole family. Did catch 2 possum and 4 cats so we went to plan B the moth flake in through the mushroom vent in the roof.

Bill,

I agree that teaching them to swim under water is more promising than teaching them to fly. :D

Jackie was kind of disappointed none of them caught on to swimming. I was kind of disapointed cause squirrel thats had swimming lessons doesn't cook up well.
