| Lately squirrels have begun climbing up the cedar exterior siding of the
house and chewing the corners. Any ideas on how to control this problem?
Thanks,

Are you now or have you been in the past feeding them by chance?

| Feeding, no. But we do feed birds and the squirrels feed on what falls on
the ground.

You could try a product called Ropel that puts a bitter taste where it
is sprayed. Pretty sure I have seen it at Home Depot. It probably is
getting time to thin out the local population. A live trap and a garbage
can full of water will work fine. Relocation will help in your
situation but can spread problems/disease elsewhere.
