I have a picket fence with columns on my front porch. I had it repaired and painted about 2 years ago. Then, I didn't know what was causing this problem but just a few months ago, I saw squirrels running around on my porch. Because of this, I'm guessing they are causing my problem. I read online that they will chew wood. I have tried putting Habenero pepper sauce but it didn't stop them. Someone had told me to try this and it was the hottest sauce I could buy. Is there a sauce hotter than this? Does anyone have an idea how to stop this before they ruin my porch? I'm about ready to start target practicing and normally, that is not me because I hate to see an animal killed. Any ideas are welcome!
