This. We had a rat problem and the pest guy told us to block any holes in building fabric with balled up chicken wire mesh until properly repaired. *******s were getting in the cavity wall though a missing brick next door, that had been removed by some plumbers.....

Not "shouldn't" but "must not"..... It is illegal to release a grey into the wild as it is decimating the Red Squirrels by out competing for food and infecting them with squirrel pox. Grey squirrels are also causing damage to woodlands as they have a habit of stripping the bark of trees.
The greys must be eradicated to protect the dwindling Red squirrel population. Your four prisoners should have been despatched humanely rather than released.
