Is this trap large enough for grey squirrels?

I use the trap for rats, and if you have smaller grey squirrels, it might work. However, I would recommend going up a size if you have the overstuffed variety we have in our neighborhood.

I don't think it is large enough for a grey squirrel. The box lists rats, chipmunks, red and flying squirrels.

Unless you have GIANT grey squirrels this trap will work perfectly. I've used the two-door version but the single door version is much easier to set. Havaharts work great.

Well I don't know. I am in Alaska and the squirrels we have seem a bit small. If the grey is smaller then yes, but otherwise I might go for a larger size. The trick is that it must me large enough so the squirrel can enter easily, without setting off the trap before they get fully inside, but not so large that they will not set the trap door because they don't weigh enough.

I don't know why not. I used the bait trap but it did not work. The squirrels seemed to enjoy the taste. It did not work.

The trap is 32"L x 10" x 12" H. It is plenty big enough for a raccoon. The box the trap comes in has a photo of a raccoon on it. It's nice and sturdy too.

I catch a lot of packrats with this trap. No bait needed. Definitely too big for mice but it will (unfortunately) trap some rabbits and golden-mantled ground squirrels (chipmunk size).

This Trap is: 6" x 6" x 16" I've caught 12 Rats of various sizes. It works for mice also.

Absolutely. We purchased so we could feed the squirrels. Not sure of size though and too dark to measure now.

Yes, absolutely can catch grey squirrels. Use a little apple and peanut butter for bait. Put a tiny bit outside the trap a more inside the trap. After eliminating all the chipmunks in the area, I'm catching a grey squirrel almost every day I try. 10 so far ...

Well, our Northern New York grey squirrels are crafty and large, and can reach the bait from the outside. So I use the Squirrelinator with modification of the bait area. I had to put 3-sided "covers" on the bait areas. I used the top of one of those plastic pastry containers from the bakery. I cut the top in half, making a top and three sides. Then I wired (twistem, pip cleaner) one over each bait area, with the opening an inch or so from the "solid" shield on the side of the trap. I slipped the bait--peanutbutter sandwich worked best--in and set the trap to catch the varmits. Good luck.

Squirrels may be too quick to kill them every time but I expect it would work pretty well. I know cage type traps used to work really well for my grandparents.This one is just two metal plates on the bottom, if their front feet hit one and back feet the other it'll send out electricity for 3 minutes. Either the squirrel will get away in the first second after it touches the plates or it will die. I've had one or two mice set it off without dying out of about 10.

I think so. It is very VERY sturdy. I have caught both raccoons and squirrels in these.

They may; I have caught one ground squirrel in my Cinch traps. He barely fit. They work well with pocket gophers. Stan

This trap does work for tree squirrels, but I had to make some adjustments. A tree squirrel is a lot bigger than the ground squirrels, and has a lovger reach. They can get their little paws in to the bait through the cage and steal it. I cut a top off a plastic bakery container from the super market, and cut it in half. I secured it, facing the shield, with twist ties. Then I put in the bait. The squirrels couldn't steal the bait. The squirrels can not dig their way out as the cage is all wire, all the way around. Any animal can dig under to get to the bait. But I put the trap on a concrete area, and was able to secure it with garden stakes at the edge of the trap. It couldn't move and it couldn't be dug under. It works.

I don't know what a grey squirrel is, but it works great with 1 exception. If the squirrel is too small it can get out of the cage.

I would say no it is large but what it is made of is for smaller birds. perfect for greys & Amazons

I doube it will work. I used it to scare rabbits and squirrels from the yard. It works for a couple of days, then they came back. As long as they have a nest nearby, they will get used to the smell in a few days.

I don't have a squirrel problem so I am not sure. However, I placed this outside to keep the bird poop off my kids swing set... for the first week they stayed away.... then they just perched right next to it on the pole. After a week they knew it wasn't a threat.
