If you want to set up a trap, you can place a wire cage on the outside of the one-way door so that the door empties directly into it. When the squirrel exits, it will jump into the cage, and won't be able to get back out. 1  To lure the squirrel into the cage, you can bait the trap with peanut butter or oranges.2  Wire cages are common household items, but they aren't the ideal traps for squirrels. 3  A better bet is to buy a one or two-door squirrel trap.hen the squirrel exits, it will jump into the cage, and won't be able to get back out. 1  To lure the squirrel into the cage, you can bait the trap with peanut butter or oranges. 2  Wire cages are common household items, but they aren't the ideal traps for squirrels. 3  A better bet is to buy a one or two-door squirrel trap.
As each planet in our solar system rotates on its axis, it also revolves around the sun. The time that it takes for a planet to make a complete revolution around the sun is the planet's year. The path that the planet follows around the sun is called its orbit.
Gravity pulls planets toward the sun and keeps them from moving off in a straight line. Inertia keeps objects moving forward so they do not fall toward the sun. (contd.) The diagram shows how gravity and inertia combine to keep objects in orbit. 2. Summarize In your own words, explain why planets orbit the sun.
