About this listen

Bird-loving Americans share a common problem: squirrels! These fast, greedy, incredibly crafty, fluffy-tailed rodents pillage birdfeeders before owners' very eyes. For 25 years Outwitting Squirrels has been leading the charge to help bird lovers defend their feeders. This classic defense manual for the besieged birder has been fully updated to deal with the more tech-savvy 21st-century squirrel. It provides 101 cunning strategies, both serious and hilarious, for outsmarting these furry but not so cute creatures. Adler discusses the different bird personalities and the best seed to attract them. He rates birdfeeders based upon how squirrel-proof or squirrel-vexing they are and discusses creative antisquirrel structures and devices. Spooker poles, Perrier bottles, baffled fishing line, Teflon spray, Vaseline, water bombs, cayenne pepper, and Nixalite - the author has tried them all, and here he regales intrepid bird feeders with his squirrel-thwarting adventures and misadventures.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

As someone who's never fed either birds or squirrels, I honestly don't see what the problem is here. Are you like the A-hole who knitted 100 scarves for charity, was told that they would really help the homeless, and then took them back because she only wanted to help the victims of the wildfires who were also homeless, but were the 'Right Kind' of homeless?

Because my Sister in Satan, if you can afford to spend hundreds of dollars on supposedly 'Squirrel Proof' bird feeders, then you can afford to feed the squirrels as well, and I honestly can't understand why you wouldn't want to.

Err... Just Feed The Squirrels As Well?
