eh, using Squirrels as fire poi sucks t be honest. It's a pain trying to trick them into the fuel barrels...
But my good friend Ratatosk has assured me that with the right actions, I might not wake up to nutshells on my pillow

Well, Nutella contains nuts, which means it attracts squirrels, which is a bad thing. Hence Marmite (or vegemite) is superior.
Welcome to HoP!
Feel free to fire away with the questions. Most of us are quite helpful, but many questions will have been answered somewhere already.
