Frequently Asked Questions
No. Birds cannot taste capsaicin, which is the substance in peppers that makes them "hot." Hot pepper products can help keep squirrels away from your bird food while still allowing the birds to eat it.
Get a squirrel-proof feeder. You can also get a squirrel baffle, and use hot pepper bird food for additional help. Refer to “Keeping Squirrels Away” for guidance.
This depends on how the baffle works, but most baffles are used to stop squirrels from reaching bird feeders by using a barrier. Baffles should be placed where they will stop squirrels from getting to your bird feeder by any means such as away from trees, fences, roofs, or other objects.
