I've seen a similar device which is used in Asia to catch rats and
mice. A squirrel is large compared to the 5 gallon barrel, and they
are smart little buggers, so I'd be curious as to whether it works on
and animal as large as a squirrel, but good luck....
Many time I have gone into my garage to find a drowned mouse
in a 5 gal bucket that has a couple inches of water in it, such as a
mop pail that hadn't been emptied....
Please post back here to let us know how the idea works out....
I would suggest putting grease on the part of the tube that will
lower the squirrel into the water to make it really slick. Their feet
will grip really well, and they, unlike rats, can almost wrap their
feet around the tube to get a better grip.
