I notice a bushy tail sticking out from under a pillow and poke it with a broom. At least 8 big squirrels start running all over the place! No way I am spending the night so i open all the doors and windows and go home hoping they find their way out. Came back this morning with my dog and a bunch of traps I bought but they seem to be gone. Good move on their part as I will show them no mercy. At least $10,000 in windows need replacing! State Farm says policy does not cover rodents. Now that I think about it maybe they were small bears as they do cover bears.

So sorry to hear this. Terrible thing to come home too. Any signs of forced entry by humans? It seems like a tremendous amount of damage for it to be just squirrels. door or window accidentally left cracked open?
