deterring squirrrels

Squirrels have cleared my pear and apple trees of unripe fruit. They are now eating the green tomatoes and my peaches. I purchased hot pepper wax spray concentrate and I sprayed before they started feeding and again after the rains, and each time I found them eating. No help. I read where you could buy some product with fox/coyote urine and sprinkle it but was afraid that may also draw some of them in. Neighbor’s cats would be in danger. I live in a subdivision close to town. Suggestions?
