Often there is more than one opening in a burrow system. Ground squirrels live in colonies that can include several dozen animals in a complex of burrows. More than one squirrel can live in a burrow. Ground squirrels are active during the day, mainly from midmorning through late afternoon, especially on warm, sunny days. Ground squirrels have two periods of dormancy during the year.
For box and tunnel traps, place them on the ground near squirrel burrows or runways, and bait them with walnuts, almonds, oats, barley, or melon rinds. Place the bait well behind the trigger or tied to it. After you bait the traps, don't set them for several days, so the squirrels become accustomed to them.
