How to keep squirrels off the bird feeder?

There are many products on the market to keep squirrels off the bird feeder. Also, you can buy feeders that are squirrel resistant. You can also buy mesh to put around the feeder or plastic sheeting to keep the squirrels away. I bought the mesh and use it on mine. It works just fine.





In addition, I found something on the internet called a bird feeder dome. They are supposed to deter squirrels. Here is the link:

Provide the squirrels with their OWN feeder. They make these corn-cob holders especially for squirrels.

There's no way - Just let them have their fun! As long as their not taking all the food, everything should be alright.
Mix a little Kihan pepper in the food. The squirrels will not go near it!
