The problem with trapping and re-locating squirrels is that they come back. I know someone who trapped some, painted them so they could be identified and released them a couple of miles away. The painted squirrels returned. I think you will find there are more squirrels living in your area than you realize. When I finally was fed up and started shooting them, I figured there were maybe 8 or 10 squirrels living around my lot. 25 squirrels later I still had several on my property, but the tomato eating stopped. I now remove every squirrel that presents a safe target. It is the only permanent solution if you are infested with squirrels.
