So I've got squirrels in my attic again. this would be annoying, except that our bedroom is kind of carved out of the attic, so it's actually super annoying.I currently lack the resources to have all of the access points sealed (Due to some rather costly repairs on my old house, I now have a pathological fear of the word "soffit". You're pretty much out at least a grand any time that word gets uttered.).But it's key to cause the squirrels some discomfort before they nest, because then they're in for the winter. So I'm repeating what I did last year--I'm funkin' 'em out. As some people know, squirrels have sensitive hearing. As everyone knows, Squirrels are inherently un-funky. They lack the funk instinct that, for example, dogs have. (This is why George Clinton never had a song called "Atomic Squirrel"). Thus, last year, I drove them out by use of a simple boom box and my "Jointz From Back in Da Day" CD on repeat. Here is the first of said jointz. I feel that 80's funk doesn't get enough love here on mog, and looking at the fashions in this video, I suppose I can see why. (I believe I was actually scarred by the image of the lead singer cavorting in the surf in a black speedo). And yet this song never fails to funk me up. And the squirrels can't stand it.
