Finger got mistaken for peanut.

[Caps83]

I feed the squirrels around my house in central Florida about twenty minutes from the beach. This morning one squirrel mistook my finger for a peanut and just pricked me enough to draw a few tiny drops of blood. I disinfected the area with soap and alcohol than some neosporin. Do I have anything else to be worried about? I feed the same 3 squirrels around my yard and put water out for them because alot of sprinklers in the area with a well as the main source for the sprinkler systems. So I guess I am curious as to what you would do in my situation? Thank you.

No, you do not have any thing else to worry about..... as long as the finger does not become infected you are fine.
Squirrels do NOT carry rabies as some would have you believe. :)
