Squirrels
Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to keep squirrels out of a bird feeder? My feeder is on a metal pole. There are tons of squirrels in the neighborhood. I put up squirrel feeders on the other side of the yard. They still attack my bird feeders. Thanks, Wanda |

Secure it below the feeder..just beware of those jumping squirrels after this modification.... -- "It is important to remember that the French have always been there when they needed us."

There were two of them. One on each side. They would take turns jumping at the pole and shaking the seeds out onto the ground. (sigh) Wanda |

Look at the rat cones on a ships line. Same concept works well on the pole
holding a feeder. If not for the rat cones on lines holding a ship to the dock the ship would be infested with rodents. Wanda wrote in message ... "Wanda" wrote in message ...

Thanks, Wanda Squirrels are such clever little creatures I don't think it's possible to keep them off any bird feeder. I think it's fun to watch them go through many obstacles just to get a few treats. I like to put out lots of treats for the squirrels & the birds. (only in the winter) |
