Question by Purple Violin: The best way to keep squirrels off bird feeders?
My family loves to feed birds. We have bird feeders in our yard. We have a problem keeping squirrels off them. We don’t want to spend money on those special feeders that spin, so we put up these cone-shaped baffles. If the squirrel tries to walk down the baffle, it is supposed to slide off. Somehow the squirrels keep getting to the feeders, and we don’t know what to do about it. Please help??

We bought special bird seed that had something hot (spicey) in it. I can’t remember if it was crushed red peppers or not, but it was a special blend that squirrels didn’t like. It worked. We had to give up filling the birdfeeders because it attracted too many little critters that our dogs were “collecting” for us. I miss the birds! Good luck.
