Tips On Squirrel Proofing Your Bird HouseI was not an expert at squirrel proofing your bird house but I can tell you that I was developing my own ideas on squirrel proofing your bird house that were none too pleasant. So I started to do some research on humane ways for squirrel proofing your bird house and I found out that squirrel proofing your bird house is not only a common problem but one that leads to some very ingenious solutions. Some Suggestions Squirrel proofing your bird house takes a little patience and a lot of creativity. For instance, squirrels can taste the spice in chili peppers but birds cannot. So one way for squirrel proofing your bird house is to throw some chili peppers in your feeder and the squirrels will get the message. It is actually the capsaicin in the chili peppers that does it and there are some capsaicin based mixtures you can get especially for bird feeder that will help in squirrel proofing your bird house. Probably the best squirrel repellant I have seen are the bird houses that have all of their perches on sensors that are activated by the weight of a squirrel. Once they are activated they give the little feller the ride of his life by spinning and bouncing up and down in a motion that eventually convinces him to leave and possibly never come back. So armed with some new information I am convinced that if I am asked to get the squirrels out of my mom's bird house I can do it. Now if I can just figure out how to keep the cat away from the bird house then I will be all set. |
