flying squirrels

[predatorkiller1342]

i know this doesnt have much to do with hunting but does anybody know how to trap or catch a flying squirrel

[FinsnFur]

If it were me I'd just climb up a tree and act like a nut. 


Seriously though, most people just use box trap.

Yep, box trap will work.  You need one with fine wire because they can get through a small sized hole.

I have a pic of one somewhere on my website.......It was living in my shooting house and in the day time it did not want to leave so I would put on a leather glove and catch it with my hands. I would let it go out side and in a few min. it would come right back in.....we started feeding it and never saw it the next year.

[FinsnFur]

what were ya feeding it, melamine?

[HaMeR]

Don't forget the peanut butter!! 

[alscalls]

Peanuts mostly.......

be careful in some states its illegal to kill them. they were protected by the endangered species act here in WV until recently. i dont know the laws governing your state.
