How critter-resistant are the balloons?

A couple of times in the last few years we've had flying squirrels come down the chimney.

How resistant are the balloons to the claws of little critters such as this? (I would put a screen on top of the chimney but I'd have to rent a lift to do so. Tall house, taller chimney, steep roof...)

Thanks,
A.

Dear A,
Have you got a friend with a bucket truck? No?, neither do I, but i wish I did many times.

Chimney Balloons hold up well keeping out birds, bats, insects, and wasps, but they fall short when it comes to racoons, squirrels, mice and opossums.

If the critter has teeth and claws, you are going to need a wire mesh cap on the chimney. And if it is opossums or racoons you are trying to keep out of your chimney make sure you anchor it VERY well. Those critters have the strenght of a Gorilla when it comes to removing chimney caps!

It was an instant hit and inspired other clubs to release their respective nfl replica jerseys.For those that are overlooking the cheap Carolina Panthers jerseys, they might want to look in the rearview mirror.Regardless of color, the most prominent feature of cheap Chicago Bears jerseysis the rounded numbers.
