Once a couple squirrels learn about tomatos it's hard to get them to
unlearn it. Generally tomatos are not something they like very much, but
if there is no easy water source, squirrels & chipmunks will break open
tomatoes to get water. Sometimes providing them with another source of
water keeps them off the tomatos, although that works best BEFORE they

They've got plenty of water - we live by a stream, and have for over 40
years. These squirrels just like tomatoes.


Our squirrels like to pick the tomatoes, take a bite, and then leave them on
the ground.
