FAQ
How do I keep deer from eating my bird feeder?
To prevent deer from getting your feeders’ seed, hang them up high, at least 6 feet off the ground. Deer may be less inclined to approach a home if your feeders are hung close by. To stop deer from browsing, keep the area around your feeders neat and tidy. Rake the area often or use mess-free seed.
Can birds smell deer repellent?
In order to keep deer away from the entire area rather than just a very limited area, it would be advisable to use a repellent further away from the bird feeder. Often, scent-based repellents have no effect on birds.
Is there a racoon proof bird feeder?
The best approach to keep raccoons out of your feeder pole is to add a steel raccoon baffle. Using squirrel baffles won’t work. Raccoon baffles are much bigger, measuring a full 10″ in diameter and standing around 2 feet tall, making it impossible for the cunning animals to reach over or “hugg” their way over it.
How do you keep animals away from bird feeders?
Hang ’em high—Hang your bird feeders from poles with a diameter of half an inch or less, fastening the pole tightly to prevent it from tipping over. Raccoons won’t be able to climb such a short pole or knock it over to get to the seed. Hang your bird feeders from a wire that runs between two trees for a high-wire performance.
