dumb question, I have seen squirrel listed on several fur buyer websites. are they talking about reds, grey/fox, both?

Red squirrels.
Grey squirrels are bought locally in Wi though

ok

I've seen a few guys selling fox squirrels to a local buyer.

FWIW: Tails can be sold to the folks that make Mepps spinners.

The squirrels that are sold at FH are pine squirrels. Commonly trapped in Canada.

I know pine squirrels are only allowed to be trapped here in Ontario, it's illegal to hunt them, but ive never actually heard of anyone trapping them here. Anyone here trap red squirrels to sell?

Gas money those Reds are
yes and almost every year we have a "one box" squirrel hunt with some of the boys

Northof50, How much $ do the pelts go for? I’ve got tons of them around me, they don’t seem like they’d be too hard to catch.

yes both,

To be clear what Wissmiss is calling a pine squirrel is a local name. If you want to look it up it is technically called a red squirrel.

cool! any tips for trapping red squirrels? I have some rat traps with weasel boxes. Bait?

They sure seem to like a meat-based bait in the wintertime, heart, liver, venison hunks.
Same stuff the weasels like, unfortunately so do the flying squirrels.

Moscow Hide and fur will buy your grey ,fox and pine squirrels. I think they need to be taxidermy skinned.

Snares I think work the best

Snare poles at mitten sites:

Snares not legal in WI

You mean your kids cant even go out and snare rabbits?
Wow, that is a part of the culture of growing up here.

Well not legally*

fur buyer said he was paying 2.50 each for reds and chipmunks not shot and not skined .
