Or is it not recommended once they've grown up indoors? We've always fed squirrels in our back yard, but never brought them into our house. Although sometimes they would get fussy and stand at our door if we didn't put any food out for them yet.
We didn't set them free in the sense we didn't let them go away. But we do allow them to walk about in our terraced garden every other day. We live in an apartment so we don't have a backyard, unfortunately. They play on the terrace, climb around the shrubs and plants, eat and nibble if they find some food, but they always come back. We have a fine net acting as a ceiling so we're not worried about birds attacking them or anything. They walk around the house as they please, they know where to find the food. We don't need to control them anymore!
