Hanging a bar of Irish Spring soap near a bird feeder can effectively deter squirrels and other wildlife from raiding the feeder, as they dislike the scent of the soap. This natural solution is a safe alternative to using pesticides or chemicals and can also be used to keep deer out of gardens and spiders out of homes. For those who prefer homemade options, crafting soap with scents like mint, cinnamon, rosemary, pepper, or garlic can also serve as an effective wildlife repellent near bird feeders.
Repurpose your empty egg carton into a bird feeder to attract more birds to your yard. The wide surface of the carton allows multiple birds to feed simultaneously, reducing competition for food. The separate compartments in the carton can hold different types of food, attracting a variety of bird species. The open container design mimics how birds forage on the ground, and suspending it off the ground keeps them safe from predators. Creating the feeder is simple, involving cutting the carton in half, poking holes for string or twine, and filling the compartments with various bird-friendly foods. Hang the feeder and enjoy the influx of feathered visitors to your backyard.
