mad

At least this time they picked one of my cheap cameras that I picked up on clearance from Walmart... of course this one was full of water when I got to it yesterday. What do you guys do to stop squirrels from chewing on them?

Damn. That squirrel just gave you a big FU. I would imagine something like this would work:

I had a coyote chew one of mine up back in deer season. I noticed that there were a bunch of odd looking scratches and gouges on the bottom half of it. Sure enough I had a pic of a coyote walking towards it and then a minute later a closeup of just a forehead and ears.

trick I learned from roofing squirrels wont chew on anything spraypainted. squirrels will chew up a lead pipe boot in a minute, if you spray paint it they leave it alone for some reason.

Not quite true, I paint my treestands every year and they will chew on the aluminum ones that were freshly painted.

Looks like you need to start shooting some tree rats to me. Metal lockbox should do the trick.
