The message
from Chris Bacon contains these words:

Who is this 'us'? As far as I am aware, you are virtually alone in the
regular deliberate drowning of grey squirrels. Other people who trap grey
squirrels, presumably, manage to deal with them in a humane manner
in spite
of your suggestion it is impossible to do so.


What then is your opinion of using a Fenn trap, as opposed to a live
trap and drowning?


It depends how you set one - if it is set to close on the animal's head
or neck I'd prefer it to a live trap, but however careful you are in
setting/baiting it, you should foresee the unforeseen.
