Peckish Squirrel Proof Suet Cake

Why Use

1. Hot Pepper Flavour

Adding the chilli pepper powder means that the suet pellets are too hot for squirrels to eat and helps stop them pinching the food. The wild birds in your garden still love them, making them an ideal high energy food.

2. High in Fat

Helps to provide your garden birds with the essential energy they need all year round.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Why are the birds not visiting my feeders?

A. It is not uncommon for birds to take some time to visit new feeders or food that is offered. It can be down to the species in your area and other food resources that are available. Make sure you are providing some cover for the birds and make available some fresh drinking water.

Q. Why are the birds discarding some seeds?

A. Wild birds are selective over what they eat and when. It is not that they do not like it but they might have another source or they don’t need it right now. Never remove or stop feeding these seeds as shortages can happen at any time.

Q. Are Suet products suitable to feed all year round?

A. Yes, Suet products can be fed all year round as they provide excellent nutrition for birds.
