jlmiracle 7 #1 June 24, 2004 Just wondering if anyone knows where I can find one. Supposedly you attach it or it comes with a bird feeder and when a squirrel gets on it the spins and throws the squirrel. I'm looking for one for my Mom. I don't have squirrels. She has tried the slinky but the smaller squirrels were eventually able to maneuver between the slinky and the pole. Anyone? Anyone?

WFFC 1 #11 June 24, 2004 Grandma's neighbor had a squirrel feeder - basically a cut broom handle with a weight on the end. The other end was an ear of corn. Squirrel goes up the pole to get some corn, weight on top is heavier than the bottom.

BillyVance 34 #21 June 24, 2004 LOL my dad has had his battles with the furry devious critters. They have always managed to beat anything he put up to block them from the 2nd floor porch where the bird seed is kept in pans on the deck. He's tried pellet guns and slingshots too (don't tell the PETA too), but they always came back. I had my little moment of fun once by quietly sliding the glass sliding door open while a squirrel was sitting in the pan feeding, and then jumping out screaming at the top of my lungs as I got within 2 feet of it, and it abruptly jumped right off the porch and rode his built-in wingsuit to the ground 25 feet below! He paused for a second after landing, then scampered off. Later dad set up an electrified pad and put the pan of birdseed in the middle, and ran a wire inside the house with a button on the end. Everytime he saw a squirrel sitting there, BZZZTT! It'd jump 2 feet in the air and scamper off. He only did it 3 or 4 times, and they stopped coming back... Don't tell the PETA either please!

BillyVance 34 #22 June 24, 2004 I have had barn swallows fly down the chimney and get stuck in my fireplace several times. The flue door is rusted open, and I have glass doors on the face of the fireplace. I never know or hear them come down, but my cats make a bee-line straight to the glass doors when they do get stuck. They make quite a commotion in the house flapping around with the cats chasing them, and I'm trying to get the stupid birds outside! Sheesh... Been needing to get a wire mesh cap and rain-guard for the top of the chimney though. Good luck with your terrorist swallow.
