Your experience with squirrels is very different from mine. I’ve been surrounded by squirrels my whole life and have never had problems like these, they just try to eat my tomatoes. Have you thought about taking a look at where they’re causing damage and figuring out how to make it more resistant or less appealing to them? There are all sorts of repellants out there, or you could replace wood panels with hardiplank, or you can cover vulnerable spots with hardware cloth. Also trim up tree branches away from your roof so they can’t access it as easily
