She caught 1 rat and then one of her precious tree squirrels which was dead the next morning. This group of homes are all over 1 mil plus and give me big tips so I want to help if I can. But not being a rat trapper I am asking for advice. How can she catch the rats without catching the squirrels. Squirrels in this area don't always hibernate Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

A good Oregon Wildlife Species ID site. Note to self- Engage brain before opening mouth (or hitting the ENTER key/SUBMIT button). Ron Fry
