Dealing with squirrels can be a sticky problem

“Red Phone, we live in west Morgan Hill in the county and we’re having a bigger problem than normal with ground squirrels. They are undermining our barn and there just seems to be more than ever. Also, we’re concerned because they carry diseases. We tried shooting them, we tried trapping them, but they are just everywhere and we’re running out of ideas. Surely, we can’t be the only ones. Help!”

Signs on public property are illegal

“Red Phone, do you know how to tell when election season is approaching? It is when the political candidate signs start illegally appearing on government property. After your great front page story on this last year, I thought the scofflaws would be too embarrassed to make such a foolish mistake this year, but I was wrong. Senate candidate Bill Monning has broken the ice by attaching several large signs to the chain link fences that line the water district canal at Dunne and Butterfield. This needs to be nipped in the bud early so our city is not covered with this eye pollution. Maybe the confiscation of the illegally posted signs and some fines would remind them that they, too, need to follow the law.”
