A handgun might not be the best plan for the rest of the time also if they are becoming a problem. Something is bringing them in and most of the time it is food. They love bird feeders here. Get rid of the feeders. Etc.

I was thinking the same thing about a handgun near the hot tub. We tend to be enjoying an adult beverage when we're in the hot tub.
Adult beverages and guns don't tend to be a good combination.

So you are saying drinking alcohol in a hot tub of water is responsible.... Actually,drinking in a tub of water is probably a worse combination than sitting water with a gun on a ledge within arms reach!
Off to look for statistics!

Just a couple quick links
While a gun sitting on the shelf within arms length is not going to kill me an alcoholic drink and fighting off dehydration is a very serious concern!
But hey, to each their own

HAHA, really, we're going there.
I never said a gun near a hot tub was unsafe, so please don't put words in my post.
Its not a stretch of the imagination that someone in a hot tub may have an adult beverage.
My personal rule of thumb is, I don't get my guns out if I'm drinking adult beverages, and I don't start drinking adult beverages when I have my guns out.
I do, however, drink responsibly in my tub(with non breakable drink ware) Cheers

You brought the alcohol amd guns to the discussion. I more or less was wondering what other people living in these types of areas were doing for protection when most vulnerable!
