Ground blinds and squirrels.

[Montana_BackCountry]

So my dad and I were talking on the phone about some scouting we've got planned.  I told him I was going to bring out my ground blind and "limb it up" off of a well established wallow here in the next couple weeks.  He advised me not to because "squirrels will get into it and tear it up."  I'm looking for experience from others on this subject.  I suppose they might, but it just doesn't seem like forest squirrels would know to do that.  Anyone???

Montana, my experience only comes from Midwest whitetail, but I've never had a problem with squirrels tearing up a blind.  We usually cut one or two into our corn field food plots and another couple into brushy fence lines.  The only issue I've had is one morning I crawled into one of the cornfield food plot ground blinds and was greeted by a raccoon.  Not sure who was more surprised me or the raccoon.
