Squirrels suck at math.

1. The little bastards have no trouble with subtraction......

when they raid my bird feeder and stuff themselves with expensive seed.

2. What you don't see is

The little bugger landed right in the spot that wasn't covered by the squirrel trap and took the food. He used the wall to bounce off for the perfect landing.

4. We bought an allegedly squirrel proof...

...feeder last Saturday. By Sunday afternoon, the enterprising little critters had figured it out.

5. I strung one across the yard once...

They jumped against the picture window, flipped in mid-air and made it there. Then I moved it further away, and they climbed along the rope to it. Finally I made a baffle by stringing a series of inch-long copper tubes and washers, a couple feet long on each side of the feeder (and several feet away so they couldn't jump over it to the feeder). Once they reached that section, it was impossible for them to climb over it without slipping off. I had won!

7. Do you by chance have a picture of this?

I'd love to see it. Am fighting squirrels who are trying to raid a bird feeder.

10. All I can give you is a hand-drawn diagram

(It was years ago.)







Hardest part was cutting up the copper tubing into 1-inch sections.

6. Hahaha

To be fair, I doubt humans would fare much better.
