The idle musings of a former military man, former computer geek, medically retired pastor and now full-time writer. Contents guaranteed to offend the politically correct and anal-retentive from time to time. My approach to life is that it should be taken with a large helping of laughter, and sufficient firepower to keep it tamed!
I too am afflicted by tree-rats. This year they stripped the nectarines and started on the peaches as they ripened. Wifmann insisted on termination with extreme prejudice. She also muttered something about "buckwheats." I have found CCI Quiet .22s very useful. They are quieter than my Sheridan air rifle with a longer range. Shot placement is everything. Oh, I found two boxes of the segmented variety and they would not feed properly. One local guy has 165 six year-old peach trees. He told me the tree-rats got every peach.

The Crosman 1377 pellet pistol would probably be more their speed, though it would likely take two of the little buggers to work the pump action.
Huh, we’ve found the target demographic for the 2.7mm Kolibri.
