The Pumpkin Squirrel

^{(photo by Amy Goetz Lauer)}

If you were to look outside and see a squirrel sitting in a jack-o-lantern you had carved for Halloween, would you find it:

a. Amusing
b. Irritating
c. Scary
d. Photo-worthy

Whether she found it amusing (It was kind of funny), irritating (They had worked hard carving those pumpkins!), scary (Oh, I hope my little girl didn't go near it!) or all of the above, when my sister looked out her front  door to see a squirrel sitting inside of and eating the family's jack-o-lantern, she definitely found it photo-worthy!

And once I saw the photo, I knew I definitely had to share it with my loyal (and periodic) About Pest Control readers. If for no other reason than that it is a nice diversion from exclusion, elimination, eradication, and prevention!

Happy Halloween!
