They make.22 shells with birdshot in them. A friend of mine lived right in town and used them for a major squirrel infestation. (He ate the squirrels too) ! Nobody ever complained about hearing gunshots.
I've got an old 22 and the bird shot sounds like a good idea. I like that! I didn't want to use a slug cause it would go too far when I missed.

Dunno about the US but bird shot here is stupid expensive .
I once had a 9mm rimfire bird shot ( #10 or #12 shot ) gun , nice idea but it was pretty low powered which was good in sheds because it didnt hole anything ( inc the bird most of the time ) but the shot would ricochet round a bit......which added a new dimension to the fun 😄
