Default Re: Squirrel Proofing My Bird Feeder

Dude, just save the PVC.... those lil fukers are GENIUSES!
Go with a good, high powered pellet gun or a .22.

I tried grease on my pole.... OK that sounds bad.....
Anyway, it didn't work. I had to fabricate a hood that hangs down under the feeder so they can't reach it. I'm waiting for one of em to show up with an Acetylene torch!

I am thinking of buy a big peace of PVC pipe to cover the the metal pole where the feeder hangs. I am hoping that will keep the squirrel from being able to climb up to the feeder. If that doesn't work I'm thinking of buy a pellet gun.
