The oldest trap trick in the book. Take (or make) a wood box, like a shoebox, and hoist it up with a stick, or stake or whatever, and put food under it. You can either rig it to where you pull a twine or fishing line on the stick to make the box fall on the animal (wont kill it), or rig it to fall when the animal trips a wire or something, so you don't have to watch it all day
Call the local animal shelter. Many will lend you a trap for a small deposit. Or you may try a equipment rental place. However, if you move them to the country, they may die anyway. We moved to the country a few years ago, and I am surprised at how few squirrels there are. I'm quite sure that it is because they have abundant natural enemies here. I have heard of hawks carrying off kittens. Then there are the dogs people dump in the country, and ferrel cats. My cat used to love to eat squirrels. When we lived near the city, he would bring them to his Mom and siblings. He would catch 3 or 4 per day sometimes. He seemed to prefer them to cat food. Now I never see him with a squirrel.


Do you have a specific problem with the squirrels? I am an avid gardener, and have had trouble with squirrels digging in my flower beds. One summer I sprinkled them with cayenne pepper after every rain, and they quickly learned to stay away. I stayed at that property for 6 years, and they never touched my beds again. It burns a little like hot sauce on the corners of your mouth, but does no other harm. Squirrel Away products are made of cayenne.

At first you should not have it activated and then whenever you cats get near it spray them with water. Soon enough the will learn that the trap is a bad thing. Then put it outside(activated) and wait for a squirrel.
Under British law, (Prohibition of Importation %26amp; Keeping Order 1937) it is an offense to release a grey squirrel into the wild, and therefore any grey squirrels trapped must be destroyed humanely.
