Are cage or killer traps best for gray squirrel? I'm needing help in deciding. I've read about the KORO, but are cage traps very effective? If cage trapping, what brand and size is good? Thanks, Sarge

Koro are a really good trap for grey squirrels( but Paul has banned him from posting on here,)

Depends on state laws too. I've read of some snaring them, or maybe a weasel box type thing. Again, depending on laws!

Cages work well but rely on food type baits. Certain times of the year it gets hard to compete with natural forage. You can up your odds by being on location, travel routes, double door cages or wrapping a trap leaving the end open for a tunnel effect.

110s work great, stick a peanut in the shell on the trigger, watch out for birds that like peanuts!

Again check your regs but 110 / 120 in a mink box with peanuts or peanut butter in the back will keep your traps full of fur.

I use a home made mink box guarded at both ends with 110s.Peanut butter and sunflower seeds in the box for bait.Works great.

Tubes work well for me.
