If there's a dead squirrel in the street, in front of my house... but do I have to pick it up? Chat Icon

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I've never had it happen before. Poor squirrel. Chat Icon

Re: Roadkill

if its in the road... NO... the road is not your property, thats city/town/county property and not your problem...


then again, even if it was on YOUR property... then its YOUR PROPERTY and you dont have to pick it up if you dont want to either! :)

although if you are in an exclusive/gated etc...community there might be some type of rule that you are responsible for XX number of feet from your curb into the street...?

Re: Roadkill

you can actually call the town and report it they will come and pick it up.

But they may take awhile. if its stinky I would just get a shovel and put it in a garbage pail on garbage day. Actually I'd make DH do it Chat Icon

Re: Roadkill

I had a dead squirrel in front of my house, and called my town (brookhaven). they said they'd sent a street sweeper to clean it...Three weeks later, they stilll hadn't come, and it was smushed into the ground.Chat Icon

My advice, make your DH do it if you want it cleaned up.

I have picked them up in front of my home with a shoveland brown bag. I just felt too bad leaving it to get smushed.
