Ha, ha this question again. I let my dog mark the tires of my truck. No squirrel problems and I have had many cars and my current truck parked outside and never a squirrel problem. If this solution doesn’t fit your fancy I would use the search function on this forum and type in “squirrels”. There has been lots of questions on this in the last couple of weeks.
