Trapping or shooting are the best options for squirrels. Live
trap with Havahart or Tomahawk traps. Prebait with walnuts,
peanuts or even fresh meat for several days with the doors
secured open. The start catching them. Release at least 10
miles away. You have to be persistent in urban areas since
squirrels readily migrate to new areas. Squirrels are covered by
North Carolina
Law for Wildlife Killed for Depredations.
