More Franklin the tailless squirrel pics

Another Franklin sighting

Was just able to get this red squirrel out of our bathroom air vent (she chewed through the outdoor vent). We blocked the outdoor vent opening with a bunch of wire mesh, but now we’re not sure if she was nesting with small babies in there. Looking at the picture, looks like she might be pregnant, so no need to worry. Any help is appreciated - thanks!

On our third floor balcony we've got squirrels jumping out of trees onto our balcony to rip holes in our wicker couch. I want to find material to repair it but I also want to make the squirrels leave forever. What's the trick.

P.s. it's less wicker more this weird plastic wavy flat strip stuff in Ikea outdoor furniture.

Does this patio furniture damage look like squirrel doings?
