Every since I've been back at my parents, there's been a lot of noise coming from the attic above my bedroom. Sometimes there's the sound of scratching, other times a series of loud bumps or a series of clicking footsteps. We'd assumed that it was birds, because a few years ago some had broken in and we'd had to scare them out and then block up the holes they were using. A couple of days ago I went up there to check for damage and found that it was actually squirrels. There are at least two of them up there and they seem moderately tame. Now we're trying to figure out the best way to deal with them - I certainly don't want to poison them.
