some of you may not like this, but I have a fairly large walnut tree provide shade for my house. the problem is it bears alot of nuts and makes an absolute mess of the drive and the yard. the squirrels like to help too.

My question is, is there anything that can be done to drastically reduce the amount of nuts it produces, other than chopping it down? I'd like to keep it, I just don't want the nuts.

terribly sorry if this is the wrong forum for this subject.

any advice would be greatly appreciated

thank you for your time.
