In Brazil, there are a lot of monkeys in the city parks. This is the same exact problem that the park had in Washington State, except they had squirrels running everywhere. If you read the post from 4/14, you'll see that they decided to blow up all the squirrels and kill them dead to solve the problem. In Sao Paulo, Brazil they are going to deal with the monkey problem in another way I like much better. To keep the expanding Capuchin population in check, they are going to capture all the male monkeys who live in the park (about 25 of them) and perform vasectomies on them. After, they will be released. Each male has an average of 8 female mates, so by doing the snip-snip surgery, the girl monkeys wont get pregnant. I think that the people in Washington State should do the same thing to all the male squirrels instead of blowing them to squirrel bits.
