SLIDELL, Louisiana (WABC) -- A sneaky intruder took advantage of an open door during a pizza delivery to leap into a house in Louisiana.

Chaotic footage captured by Rodney Herbert's Nest camera shows a squirrel leaping from its hiding spot in the porch as his wife Darian answered the door to a pizza delivery driver.

Darian told Storyful that she had seen the squirrel earlier in the day when she went out to the store.

She said she "immediately went back inside," knowing that if she went through the walkway "it was going to jump."

"I just had a feeling," she said, so used the back gate to leave, and brought the groceries in through the back door.

"Well, Rodney ordered pizza, and I saw the pizza guy at the door," Darian said. "I figured since he was standing there with no problem, it should be fine."

It was when she opened the door to get the pizza that the sneaky squirrel jumped in above her head.

"I ran to our dining room and stood on a chair and yelled at Rodney to come get it," Darian said.

After a bit of a chase, they eventually got the critter out of the house.

I like how people scream like it's a monster. It's a fucking squirrel. Just chase it back out of the house. Leave the door open and it will run out.

Squirrels move fast as fuck and crack open some hard ass nuts, I'd scream like a bitch too if one of those crackhead tree rats jumped at me out of nowhere.

Not to mention they can carry rabies and having one exhibit aberrant behavior like entering your house as though it were unafraid is a sign the squirrel has it.
 
A video I saw on Worldstar like two weeks ago is worth an entire article? Thank God there's nothing important going on in the world.

Small rodents (like squirrels, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, chipmunks, rats, and mice) and lagomorphs (including rabbits and hares) are almost never found to be infected with rabies and have not been known to transmit rabies to humans.

Raccoons; skunks; foxes; and coyotes are the animals most commonly infected with rabies in the US. Bites from any of these animals should be considered a potential exposure. Small rodents are almost never found to have rabies; but a state or local health department should be contacted in all...

I'm not seeing "squirrels are immune to rabies and can never catch it."
 
Rabies is a possibility. But apparently orange blossoms act as squirrel bait, so I'm thinking they had a candle or bouquet of the shit by the front door.
