The Haydel's SV-87 Squeal Type Varmint Call is a precision-tuned instrument designed to replicate the high-frequency "squeals" of rodents and small prey animals. For the predator hunter, this call is the key to tapping into the primary food source of foxes, bobcats, and coyotes—small, high-pitched rodents. Whether you are hunting the brush lines of the Midwest or the open desert of the West, the SV-87 offers the perfect "distress" note to turn curiosity into a successful hunt.
Built with Haydel's renowned craftsmanship, the SV-87 features an open-reed design that makes producing high-frequency, rapid-fire squeals incredibly easy. Its compact, lightweight housing ensures it stays out of the way until needed, and its moisture-resistant construction guarantees it performs in the diverse environments where varmints and predators live. If you want a call that masters the subtle, high-pitched sounds that many large-prey calls miss, the SV-87 is the precision tool for your vest.

Haydel's SV-87 Squeal Varmint Call FAQ
This call is incredibly effective when predators have become "call shy" to loud rabbit sounds. The subtle nature of the SV-87 is perfect for pulling in educated or cautious predators that have heard too many aggressive distress calls.
Use short, light, and rapid pulses of air. Think of it as "chattering" your breath rather than blowing hard. This rhythm perfectly mimics the frantic behavior of a rodent in distress.
Yes. Foxes have an incredibly keen sense of hearing and respond very aggressively to the high-pitched squeaks of mice and voles, making this a top-tier choice for fox stands.
Try mixing quick bursts of squeals with short pauses. This creates a realistic pattern that sounds like a rodent trying to hide and squeaking periodically, which keeps the predator's interest focused on your location.
