You wake them up....... this is only really possible from November to April. Best night I've had on them was 13. Most out of a drey was 7, and I shot 6 of them.

Isn't it easier to just do it during the daytime go drey poking

Blast the drey with a twelve bore, and a nice 3" magnum load of BBs that wakes them up, and quickly puts them back to sleep

He was asking about nighttime squirrels. So I answered about night time squirrels.

At certain times of the year they are much easier in the dark, if you've got an understanding about their dreys.
