Every boomer with a bird feeder hates squirrels. I don’t understand.

    They’re destructive and difficult to deter. If squirrel hate is more common among Boomers, it’s probably because they’ve lived long enough to find this out firsthand.

      Well said. Not a boomer, but I’ve come to hate the destructive little fuckers and periodically go on an extermination binge. Chewing wires off, making holes in the siding and soffits to store their stuff, they have earned my undying hatred.

      Besides, red squirrels are the largest predator of baby rabbits.
