I get pissed off at the squirrels in my bird feeders, so I add cayenne and red pepper to the bird food. The birds can't taste it, but boy does it send the squirrels flying off the feeder for water!

Makes me laugh every time......

Now that's not nice! I love sitting in my kitchen and watching these two squirrels chase each other around the tree trunk outside.
Once though when my son was little we had a rabid squirrel in attack mode jump him and chase him into his trailer. My wife had to beat it back with a broom. It went flying thru the air several times, but as soon as it landed on its feet, it launched back at her...until it got worn out.

If you have enough of their shenanigans, you can always do this :D :

ARGH!!!

That is one FAT squirrel - maybe all the resin is expanding in his belly!?

I've hunted and eaten squirrel. They're pretty good, but a bit of a pain to clean. If they were bigger it'd be worth it. Maybe on a Moai diet . .

PTD ~ I think your on to something....

MOAI SQUIRREL FEEDERS, DA MOAI THEY EAT THE MOAI THEY LIKE!!

I can see them for sale at pet stores across the country!!

:wink:

This is not a squirrel. This is a woodchuck/ground hog/tail-less beaver thingy.

I noticed the Moai had some "chew" marks on it a few days ago, but I wasn't sure what was eating at it.
While I was out painting on my Witco chair restoration yesterday I heard the squirrel gnawing on it.
Not sure why because we have a squirrel feeder in the yard. I would really be impressed if it could chew on the stone Moai sitting on the shelf next to it!

Having a squirrel feeder is not going to prevent gnawing. Eating and gnawing are two different things. Rodents usually gnaw on wood to keep their incisors from getting too long but it sounds like resin does the job too. Protect the rest with (like dcman said,) a cayenne pepper spray.
