You need know laws where you live. Some places like here make trap

released a squirrel right in front of a cop once but he said nothing.

It's not merely trap-and-release. The laws also vary regarding
killing squirrels. Gray squirrels are native to southern California
and are protected by law. Red squirrels, however, are an introduced
species and may be killed.

In either case if there is a large breeding colony both T & R and killing a
few are a waste of time. They will breed up and replace all you can remove.
In such a case you need an effective repellent or physical barrier.
