How about a rat trap? Just make sure to run a screw through it in to the wood on the porch.

I am battling the same problem but it turned out to be big rats instead of squirrels. “the kind of rats you see while cutting hay or bush hogging “ They ate a hole in each side of our porch and got into the attic. I put out the yellow poison you have to break apart in the attic and Killed a bunch of them and they are the worst smelling thing you could imagine. I been having to make a daily trip through the attic to try and find dead rats. . We didn’t even know that they had moved in until about a week ago we heard one and I found the holes and put the poison out.

A live trap baited with peanut butter, then drop the trap in a 5. bucket of water, this has worked for me.

I'd stuff the top of the post with newspaper/cardboard down about 2 feet. Then I'd spray expansing foam on top of that and let it set up about a foot below the top of the post. The last foot would be Quick Set concrete and they'd never get in/out again.
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Koro rodent trap. $13 from Wildlife Control Supplies. Stick a peanut on the trigger and watch em flop.
Then pour quickcrete in the hole so the problem doesn't keep popping up.

Sand is cheap. You could fill the column with sand and cap it with a little Sackrete.

n a small American town, a band of squirrels had become quite a problem
The Presbyterians called a meeting to decide what to do about their squirrel infestation. After much prayer and consideration, they concluded that the squirrels were predestined to be there, and they shouldn't interfere with God's divine will.
At the Baptist church the squirrels had taken an interest in the baptistery. The deacons met and decided to put a water-slide on the baptistery and let the squirrels drown themselves. The squirrels liked the slide and unfortunately, knew instinctively how to swim, so twice as many squirrels showed up the following week.
The Lutheran church decided that they were not in a position to harm any of God's creatures. So, they humanely trapped their squirrels and set them free near the Baptist church. Two weeks later the squirrels were back when the Baptists took down the water-slide.
The Methodist church tried a much more unique path by setting out pans of whiskey around their church in an effort to kill the squirrels with alcohol poisoning. They sadly learned how much damage a band of drunk squirrels can do.
But the Catholics came up with a more very creative strategy! They baptized all the squirrels and made them members of the church. Now they only see them at Christmas and Easter.
And not much was heard from the Jewish synagogue. They took the first squirrel and circumcised him. They haven't seen a squirrel since.
I unashamedly copied this from another site. Hope it helps!!!! pretty good

So they go in and can’t get out? I like it. They can’t chew through the concrete block. So if they get in they are done. I think I will slip some poison (mentioned above) in too so they will have a snack No they go out the existing hole this thing is in existing hole with narrow end pointed out of hole once they get out they cant get back in

Some will say rat poison wont kill them but i disagree. Take some Dcon or whatever kinda rat poison. I bought the small block type. Put a few in a zip lock bag or similar and pound them with a hammer into very small pieces. Then get a cheap jar of peanut butter. I used the chunky type. Take the pounded up pieces and with latex gloves on get some pb and kneed them together. I made marble sized pieces. I left them in the sun for a couple of days to dry out and get hard. I then put them in the opening they were going thru. Withen 2 weeks I had no more squirrels and sealed the opening.

Do it the easy way, get some fox or coyote scent and put some towards the entry point where they travel the most. You won't smell it unless you douche it on. Once they get wind of the predator smell they won't be back!
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
