I just released "Squirrels: The Cartel Strikes Back." You'll love it!

You should win an academy award for this!

My father had a war with squirrels for decades. This reminded me of him. Thanks for the laughs.

I have seen a lot of squirrel videos but yours is by far the very best! It was absolutely clever, witty and hilarious!

Had to hit pause because the owl in the peripheral has me in tears😂😂😂

The squirrels found my strawberry plants and I was looking for a solution. You’ve helped ensure that I don’t underestimate them. 😂 I loved “Charlie” who was not very bright and wearing a mask 😂😂😂 Thanks for all the laughs and the solution. ❤ Happy gardening.

Absolutely immaculate, and i do mean immaculate, dialogue in this video. Had me laughing really hard. Excellent advice as well. Just the video i was looking for.

You have replied to every one of the 857 comments?! That’s nearly as commendable as your very creative and funny video. What a good man you appear to be….cheers and blessings to you!

I cut my peach tree down, now none of us gets them

Squirrels officially declared war on our first red tomato this morning 😂

I had already come to the conclusion of spending an additional 3 years salary on what used to be a days wages on caging my garden area. But this video was worth the watch and very entertaining!!

This is maybe one of the best things I have ever seen in my life. Thank you.

I was searching how to keep squirrels from eating my sunflowers and came upon your channel. It's delightful! I was cracking up with your humor. I love squirrels and keep them supplied with peanuts in the shell and corn, both from the feed store. We have a family of squirrels in our tree, only 3 or so, as sadly, one was accidentally run over. So, while I acknowledge that I'm actually attracting them by feeding them, I'm just trying to find a nice balance so we can enjoy our sunflowers and they enjoy a little, but a little to them is a lot to me :) Thanks again for a fun and informative video.

BEST gardening video ever! I love your sense of humor, Rick. Thank you for sharing yourself - and your final solution - with us. I DO appreciate that squirrels bury walnuts that grow into walnut trees. I have to transplant them to other areas of my yard, but they get a good head start in my very fertile garden, thanks to my team of industrious squirrels... NOW, if they'd just stop eating the chicken food and terrorizing the chickens! - Got any solutions for keeping them away from chicken yards? Oh, never mind, I know - enclose everything in wire fencing. hahaha...

This informative video deserves an award, I had sent an email requesting its nomination but somehow Charlie contacted a member in his squirrel ops team over here in Canada & had them enter my home in the dead of night and delete my email(s). Damn you Charlie !

That was the funniest $&@ I’ve seen in a while😭😭As a veteran I really appreciated the presentation. I’ve been trying to chase off this 1, or so I believe, squirrel for months and have tried just about everything you did. Thank You for this !! Let’s hope this works🤗 I’m still laughing 😂

[gracefultouch]

Having tomatoes go left and right out of my first time garden😢..looking for a solution, I came across your video..Ty for the caged veggie info and even more for the Laugh and entertainment..So good! ❤

Wonderful! I have a herd of 20-25 squirrels that go thru 25 lbs of peanuts in a month. Have to rethink this. Just began a veggie garden. You had me chortling. Beautifully done and the stock footage was perfect.

[aRegalwoman]

This is by far The Best well put together video Ever!
Thankyou Sir
I too have a commando squirrel issue.

This was the BEST story telling I think I've ever heard! You ROCK!!!

Just a word of caution to you and others wanting to use caged gardens for produce. Be careful of what type of metals you use as they can leach lead and other harmful things into your soil which your plant's roots will absorb and pass on to you.
