Moth balls don't work on Bronx squirrels.

Not even when fired from a slingshot?  :-\

I NEED to keep the mice out. I just bought a new John Deere tractor and if those make the beast with two backsers move back in I'll be pissed!

Cats are not an option because... Well.... I hate 'em.

I'll probably go all out and buy every trap/poison available.

Cats are really OK, once you get to know them.  They were a great solution for mice here and trying to permanently get rid of mice without cats is like bringing the proverbial knife to a gunfight.

You don't have to like barn cats.  Actually, they kinda work better if you don't like them.  Give them no attention and feed them rarely.  They will have every mouse and songbird dead within a several block radius.

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. H. L. Mencken

Walther P22. Not perfect for eradication, but damned fun, and good for your accuracy.

My buddy and I used to eradicate the honey bee population with 10/22s. Put a decent scope on one and they will put 5 rounds inside a dime at 50 yards stock.

Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty, and the pigs like it...
