Ok so for the longest time I never hunted squirrels until after the first frost because of worbels. But I have also been told that if you skin a squirrel and find some worbels that you can just cut them off/out and the meat is still good. Does anyone else know if this is true or what do you do in this case?

That is probably true but I wait till frost so I don't have to worry. My biggest thing with squirrels is to shoot young ones.

No idea what worbels are. I've just squirrel hunted when I had time.

After further research this problem isnt in PA but the ODNR says they wont bother the squirrels and they are fine to eat.

Just curious but why do you shot young ones?
