Well this is the sort of temple defilement we have gotten sadly 'used to' ever since the dissolution of the monasteries in the 16th C. Those 'ribbons' are a sacred object, therefore those Yukkuri are technically claiming 'sanctuary' as their home and are in any legal sense 'protected by a higher authority than man' {the anon}. This Anon is about to do something that this Atheist cannot tolerate and that is the wilful destruction of a temple in a manner that would make a 17th C Leveller's blood boil with hell-fire. Sorry but in my conscience this is pure unadulterated sacrilege and not any justice I see here.
Benz, the Anon is chasing out yukkuris from a holy ground NOT meant for anything to live at. It won't destroy the tree or anything, just chase out the yukkuris of that holy tree. So don't worry there won't be any temple destruction, only yukkuris kicked out of holy ground.
And Sanctuary can only be taken in "Temples", holy trees aren't temples, may be part of temples depending of their localization, but they won't be the building that you can call for sanctuary. Besides only people seems to have sanctuary rights overall, and animals have them only on temples that worship them or have a particular theme about them, like that Rat temple in india or that monkey temple, yukkuris, as neither animal or person, but monster fauna, lack any sanctuary right for the time being.
Besides knowhing this author's love for some very dark stuff and all, i wouldn't be surprised that if they won't leave, they'll face a whole night of nightmare fuel of japanese survival horror tier of which i doubt they would surive, maybe like Kuon or something...

After reading pool #462 this comment is now extremely hilarious in hindsight.
While I can totally understand the anon wanting the yukkuri to leave the holy tree, I feel like a more polite attempt wasn't unreasonable. Just tell them that trees with such ornaments on them designate trees for Mr. Spirits, and that if they don't want to be haunted horribly, yukkuri will get out easy. If they're too stupid to heed that, then squash them.
