Small live trap or a victor rat trap screwed to the tree with peanut butter on the trigger works well.

By using the term “red squirrels”, are you referring to the small pine squirrel? If so an interesting thread written by forum member trapper ron is found at https://trapperman.com/forum/ubbthreads....irr#Post1126006

If your just having "isssues" with the squirrels.Leave them be.
When they start causing "problems"trap the little devels

Rat traps, wooden or plastic with teeth works well, or small live traps. Put the traps up off the ground on a "shelf" you make or a natural one- branch.
