This is not the Carolina Birds that I subscribed to ...

There are many humane ways to rid your feeders of squirrels. Personally,
I've never had a problem with them as long as I use a squirrel baffle and
do not put the feeder next to anything from which the squirrel can jump. A
squirrel eating your bird seed does not justify their slow and painful
death.
I hope we can now discontinue this topic for awhile.

The more they suffer and the longer they suffer, the better.
