Squirrels of Spring

This is the time of year when all squirrels need a little extra care in the form of food. There is a lot of green but not so much food readily available to our furry friend. This is probably why you'll find this critter hanging out at the bird feeders...they're just as hungry the birds. What I suggest is to put out extra dry corn (you can find this at most hardware stores) and sunflower seeds. Not only will the squirrels and birds thank you, but you might get some beautiful flowers as the temps warm up. Another thing you can do to help squirrels and chipmunks is by controlling ticks. What I am doing is taking cotton dipped in a bit of insecticide. The chipmunks and squirrels will use this to pad their nests, so leave it close to where you have a chipmunk hole or squirrels in a tree. This will get rid of ticks and protect you as well. Some favorite treats we put out for squirrels are dried bread, grapes, seeds, and dried corn. We spread out the bread and corn so as not to attract too much wild life like skunks and racoons. Although, I do love skunks too. :)
