You can have some fun with them with either of the following: A squirrel-a-pult - easily made with bunjee & a plastic collander. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRR4bOquEKQ Or a birdfeeder from 'Droll Yankees' that spins them off. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NocRG3r2zBw&feature=related They also make decent targets while teaching the little ones how to shoot.

This way the squirrels must navigate thick, shifting cylinders to make it to the feeder. Never tried it myself, supposed to work well.
