You're exactly right. Squirrels will get in your attic and shit and piss all in your insulation and contaminate your home instead. Or chew through the wiring and burn it down for you. Squirrels are vile little creatures, and just fluffier disease carrying rodents. Around here, they're also referred to as chicken 'o the tree. I've never ate one, don't think I could bring myself to do it either.
I’ve got an uncle that loves squirrels to eat. He’ll get a feeder like this and start camping on them from the porch. When I was younger and living at home I remember him asking everyone at a family gathering who was overpopulated. He would set up shop at family members homes and knock them down. Clean and freeze what he couldn’t eat at that time for later.
