Peanut butter and a "live trap" cage. They alwys go in and get caught. Then, you can "do" what you want with them.

A good .22 caliber pellet gun will kill a squirrel.

There are poisoned peanuts at Agway. Should give some intestinal discomfort.

I use a livetrap with half and apple (core cut out and filled with peanut butter). I suspend the apple from the inside top of the trap using bale wire so that the squirrel has to stand on the trip to reach the apple.

Then, yes off to the pail filled with water for some swimming lessons.

A dog will chase'em away and you will bond together if one happens to get caught!

Just make sure you relocate them more than 5 miles away....they will come back because they are territorial....

I agree with Shannon start a swim team. They seem to have trouble understanding the whole swimming concept. But that's ok for me.

In 2005 I relocated about a dozen 32 miles to White Plains, NY.

It turned out to be a colossal waste of time. Every day there was a fresh batch waiting when I got home. LOL

Extremely rare WHITE SQUIRREL. I don't mess with these guys as they're pretty cool. Our town is one of only a handful of communities nationwide with white Squirrels. I shot this picture in 2003 however we had one living in our yard in '04 & '05. Like the black squirrels of NY, these guys get picked off by Hawks pretty easily so their numbers are expected to decline.

I've learned that they aren't albino at all (no pink eyes) but rather a simple genetic mutation.

SQUIRREL = Furred RAT.

I say a fence, with a 50,000 volt and 10 amp current.

Please do not touch it yourself (Deadly to humans/dogs/groundhogs/deer/catle and anyhting not weighing about 12 tonnes), but it will ruin a squirls day.

Fry his nutz!
