Luckily, squirrels don’t tend to take to suet as often as they do sunflower but we do get the occassional report. The real problem tends to be with the “night shift”. Many people simply take their suet feeders in at night. While this very effective, it only takes forgetting it once that leads to a trip down to the edge of the woods to retrieve the feeder. The simplest solution that I have found is Hot Pepper Suet. No, it doesn’t hurt the birds and they will eat it just as well as many of the other formulas.
