'Keeps them entertained!' Simple swap to keep 'agile' squirrels off of your bird feeders

    [ad_1]

    If you’re on a budget or would rather adjust your existing feeder, there are a few ways to block access points for squirrels only.

    The RSPB recommended fixing cones, large domes, and discs of plastic drinks bottles to the string of hanging feeders.

    For bird table feeders, a downward-opening cone or a biscuit tin would also work.

    Simply attach the item to a pole and place it below the table.

    According to the RSPB, this prevents squirrels from climbing up to access the food. The society added: “Vaseline or other grease on a smooth pole will also help.”

    While switching up the design of your feeders is the best deterrent, there are other steps you can take to distract squirrels from your bird feed.
