• When squirrels start overtaking your attic or get stuck in your house, one of the easiest ways to remedy the problem is to use a humane trap. The trap (usually baited with peanut butter) lures the squirrel inside, and a trigger shuts a door behind it. When it’s time to release the squirrel outside, don’t relocate it far away from your house. The squirrel probably has a nest nearby, and moving it to a foreign place gives it little chance to survive. Instead, fix the entry point where it got into your house, which will also solve the problem for the future.
