You might try working up some traps and transporting them to some other location, though.

Yep. This is what I did when I was living in some rundown Section 8 apartment in SC. I borrowed a medium-to-large size animal cage from the biology lab and rigged a trap. When I caught one of the apartment strays, I threw an old blanket over the metal bars (because most cats, in my experience, calm down faster if they can't see their environment). Then I drove the cage and cat to the animal shelter up in Spartanburg.

I'm sure most of them were euthanized (and I suspect as much because I had to help euthanize quite a few strays when I worked with the SPCA), but it at least helps to solve the problem. I wouldn't pull the sympathetic fallacy and think that I'm somehow doing the cats a favor, but it at least helped to clean up the place, at least for the few months that I lived there.
