Try mothballs at the bases they don’t like the smell after it rains Check to see if the need replacing the dollar store sells them

  Take the screen out. They are removable. If you don't know how, have your window washers show you.

Get a bag of blood meal from the nursery, spread near. The squirrels don't like blood smell at all
