I grew weary of trying to trap them. Set a leopard blind like in Zambia over bait. Got 4 in one afternoon!

28 ga works for the ones that were stealing my peaches It's obvious from this thread, the US ain't China. I wish I had a bowl of my grandmothers squirrel and rice. A few yellow, round egg yolks for some flavour and color, sprinkled over with coarse grind pepper. It takes some doing, to get much better.

Maybe an electric fence would keep them out?

No. 1 single-spring or coil spring. They'll walk right into it.
A friend would set them and lay them long the edge of his cabin roof at fish camp. Late in the evening sitting around the fire you'd hear a metallic SNAP! and rattling chain.

I live in a suburban neighborhood and can't be shooting shotguns in my backyard.
But I do have a Red Ryder that will leave a severe bruise.
