Anyway, I hear you have to keep spraying that stuff to keep it working. Are the squirrels destroying the garden and/or just eating the birdseed?

It's now in the "new and improved" powder form! What you do is hang these plastic packets in popular locations, perforate the tops of the packets to let the stink out (and mercy does it smell!) and they're good for 90 days. After 90 days, you can then sprinkle the powder around the perimeter of your gardens and get another 30 days of stench depending on watering.

Yeah, the little pricks have been digging up our Autumn planting of seeds and bulbs for the Spring. It's really quite aggravating . . . hopefully this method will work.

They even have pictures in the instructions of how people hang them on their bird feeders as birds can't smell it but the sqwirls do and stay away. I, however, have awesome bird feeders that the sqwirls can't get to.

Tell me how you really feel about them sqwirls. LOL.

I'll be interested in knowing if it works. When all else fails, you'll have to start feeding the squirrels their own food.
