Ha ha. A guy with an automatic zapper made a pitch on Shark Tank and they told him no way because PETA would be all up in their arse and it wasn’t worth the headache.

The latest can’t miss option was a slinky that was supposed to trip up the squirrels as they made their way to cage. It work for a few hours
My slinky worked really well for the squirrels, but it seemed to scare the birds away, too.

They’re impressive, and figure out almost everything. If you don’t want to shoot them just move the feeders around, but in the same vicinity so the birds can find it.

The acrylic Arundale Mandarin baffle seems pricier than it should be at $36.99 on Amazon but it's the only gadget that seems to work. Texas squirrels laugh at metal baffles and so-called squirrel proof feeders.

Tin garbage can lid about 4 ft or so up pole with lots of tilt/play so they slide off is pretty cool.
Keep feeder away from trees, chairs, anything they can jump from. duh!

Depends on how you mount your feeder. If it's on a post, use a cone or a pvc pipe over the post. I use pvc pipe and have never had a squirrel get to the feeder.

squirrels are likely eating the sunflower seeds out of your mix....just get some feed without any big seeds and I don't think they will be interested.
If they are, get a gamo pellet gun and wreck their little asses.

I nailed them square with BB pellets but they just laugh at that. Being in the York they don’t sell bigger pellets and they require you’re ID. Yes I pretty much had a 10 minute background check to buy a little red Robin BB gun

Squirrels are cute.
Let them eat the bird seed, a-hole.

Why do you want to feed birds more than squirrels? Squirrels are way cooler.
Posted on 4/24/18 at 8:53 pm to Morty
I put up a feeder just for the squirrels. To hell with birds, squirrels are a lot more entertaining.

Back in the day I had wooden garage doors. Made the mistake of storing birdseed in the garage. The squirrel gnawed a hole through the door while I was at work. Unreal how crazy they are for seed

My friends at the NRA say nothing short of an AR15 will get the job done.

Were you always an idiot or is this a side effect of your condition?
