Question by Janice L: How do you stop deer from eating at hanging bird feeders ?
We have bird feeders in our backyard that are hanging from posts. Deer come up to the feeders and slightly tip them so the seeds spill out onto the tray so they can lick the seeds off the tray. My husband wrapped chicken wire aroud the trays but that hasn’t stopped them. HELP!!!

try putting a salt lick about a hundred ft away the deer will have something other to do then eat your bird food.or you can set up a deer feeder (if you live in the woods) in your back yard well away from the bird feeders my grandma had the same problem except it was a bear.and with my bird feeders i had raccons,squirrles,and opposoms.or if you have bb gun or pellet gun and you dont want the deer to come to your yard anymore shoot them with the bb gun it only gives them like a bee sting.belive me i ve been shot with one it hurts but only feels like a bee sting.just even try handging the birdfeeders up in a high tree branch where the deer cant reach them.
