A water spray is about as effective as a rain storn. The idea is to get something on their fur that lasts for a day or so and is unpleasant to remove. If you don't like WD-40 or wasp spray let them have it with some kind of Walmart perfume. You want them to learn that your place is not for them.

Squirrels belong to the sane family as rats and other rodents; they just have fuzzy tails. The best solution would be to train your neighborhood coyote to come by every morning for a quick squirrel breakfast.
