My peach trees are in a location where I can't  
reliably shoot the squirrels and they have gotten most of my peaches  
for the last several years (note that I am clearing out squirrels year- 
round with my pellet gun, and I have only seen one (now-dead) squirrel  
in the last two weeks in my yard, but surely a bunch will descend once  
the peaches start to ripen).  If the tangletrap even slowed them down  
a bit I would call that a victory.  My peach trees are all closely- 
planted and about 8' tall; my plan was to put the tangletrap on the  
main trunks of all of the trees.  Good plan?

My reply:

You might want to try squirrel poles.  Be aware it is an indiscriminate 
killer. I got more birds than squirrels but it worked.
