STOP BIRDS FROM HITTING YOUR WINDOW!
DROLL YANKEE Warning Web-2 Pack
Deters window strikes by birds scientifically
STOP BIRDS FROM HITTING YOUR WINDOW! When birds such as cardinals as well as other birds, see their reflection in your window, they have a tendency to think it is another bird invading their nesting territory, especially during the spring mating season, thus the problem with birds hitting your window. Birds will protect their territory and continue to hit your window if necessary, they also may move to another window and continue the strikes. You can prevent these strikes by using these static cling spider webs. Buy more if necessary and put them on as many windows as necessary. This static cling decal mimics a sticky spider web a dangerous hazard that birds try to avoid.
Placed on a window, this spider web decal has the same effect. Use two or more Warning Webs on large windows.

How to SQUIRREL PROOF Your Bird Feeder
How to Squirrel Proof your Bird Feeder
by BackyardBirdWatcher.com
Locate your birdfeeder at least 10-12 feet away from any object that a squirrel can leap from, for example, trees, limbs, roof tops, fences ledges etc. In other words, there should be no place for a squirrel to jump from within a 10 to 12 foot RADIUS of your bird feeder. (This is what most manufacturers will recommend to make your bird feeder truly squirrel proof.)
Next, install a squirrel baffle above your feeder. Your squirrel baffle can be made from a steel garbage can lid or pie pan OR you can buy a store bought squirrel baffle which will be more pleasing to look at and more functional.
You can also suspend your bird feeders between two poles or trees with heavy duty nylon string or fishing line. Plastic PVC pipe can be placed on both end of the nylon string to make it more difficult for a squirrel to get to the feeder. They will spin and flip trying to get to the feeder. Pie pans can also be strung on the line as well to give the squirrel more obstacles to deal with.
A pole mounted birdfeeder should be at least 6 feet above the ground so that a squirrel can't leap up onto the feeder. Locate the top of your squirrel baffle at least 5 feet above the ground when attaching it to the mounting pole. When the squirrel goes up the pole, the baffle will literally baffle the squirrel and he will turn around and head back down the pole and considers his next move.
Some suggest greasing the pole with Pam etc. but this will work for a short period of time only.
The other option is to divert the squirrels away from your bird feeder with a squirrel feeder or squirrel toy in some other part of your yard. Several manufacturers make squirrel feeders that spin with cobs of corn on the end. when the squirrel jumps for the corn cob, the squirrel spins off to the ground. You can also use an open platform feeder type tray (a flat tray) and provide a feeding area for the squirrels with cracked corn, an inexpensive seed, or another type of food such as sunflower seed or peanuts. The idea is to place this feeder in another area as a diversion so that the squirrels do not bother the other feeders that are provided for the birds.

SQUNGEE Deluxe Squirrel Feeder
Loads of laughs for the whole family!
When the squirrels jump up and grab the corn, they hold on. While they hold on and pull out kernels, their weight and gravity is bouncing them up and down about 12-18 inches while they spin and swing. (We have even seen squirrels Squngee® upside down!)

Dartmouth Squirrel Proof Peanut/Sunflower Bird Feeder
Squirrel-Proof Woodpecker Peanut/Sunflower Feeder
10-1/2" x 9" cage with peanut feeder in the middle.
Galvanized steel lid with heavy, vinyl-coated wire mesh. Includes hanging chain and lock clip. Holds 1/4 lb of peanuts.
Review: This one we like for keeping squirrels out. It is not the most attractive but has been around bird feeding for a long time. Notice the fine mesh on the bottom and heavy duty galvanized top. This one will keep the squirrels out. It's heavy duty and gets the job done.
Can be used for suet as well. This one is great for woodpeckers. They can cling to the bottom and eat. Other clinging birds such as gold finches , chickadees etc. will enjoy it as well.
