If there is a food source nearby, it's probably why they are there. We had them running up and down our pool screen and it gave the cat some entertainment and they formed a strange friendship. They were so light there was no damage. If you do relocate them take them far away and near a big old oak tree. They won't come back. Too many squirrels can get into attics and cause damage especially if there are not an abundance of tall trees for them to live and survive.
In the north, we feed them peanuts along with the chipmunks and delight in their presence but here there seems no place of their own and so they become a nuisance...but to them..we are the nuisance. There is still lots of forest in Florida to place them so off they go but please don't kill them.
