| Get
any
group
of
bird-feeding
individuals
together
and
squirrels
will
soon
come
up
in
the
conversation.
If
you
want
to
keep
squirrels
from
your
feeder,
most
will
agree-
good
luck
and
God
Bless.
However,
through
a
little
attention
to
feeder
placement
and
the
proper
use
of
"baffles",
you
can
minimize
squirrel
usage
and
enjoy
the
type
of
feeder
you
want.
All
feeders
must
be
at
least
eight
feet
from
any
horizontal
jumping-off
stop,
as
many
squirrels
can
jump
that
far.
The
bottom
of
your
feeder
should
be
at
least
4
1/2'
off
the
ground.
If
you
are
using
a
4x4
post
or
iron
hood,
you
should
place
a
baffle
immediately
below
the
feeder.
Whatever
tactic
you
employ,
we
are
confident
if
you
utilize
the
products
and
methods
we
describe,
you
can
protect
your
feeder
from
squirrels
and
allow
the
birds
you
love
to
feed
in
your
backyard.
When
protecting
a
feeder
with
a
hanging
baffle,
make
sure
the
baffle
is
at
least
1/3
larger
in
circumference
than
the
feeder.
Also
make
sure
the
bottom
of
the
feeder
is
at
least
4
1/2'
off
the
ground
and
that
the
feeder
hangs
at
least
8
feet
away
from
a
tree
trunk,
yard
hood,
or
other
'sideways'
launching
spot
for
attracting
squirrels. |
