Squirrel Repellent?

How can I keep the squirrels from eating and tearing up my new Deck Furniture Cushions?Squirrel Repellent?
Sprinkle cayenne pepper on them. It works! They hate pepper! They'll remember the taste %26amp; won't come back. They love the stuffing in the pillows to make their nests.


Better brush it of before you sit on them, though!Squirrel Repellent?
One word. Mothballs!


Well, maybe it's two but that's besides the point!


Put some mothballs behind your cushions and stuff them into the cracks of your furniture and the squirrels will stay away from it. Squirrels hate the smell of mothballs, it acts as a deterrent.


Plus, it won't harm your furniture.It's a little strong smelling though, but effective regardless!


Mothballs also work well in gardens for your springtime bulbs, since bulbs are another favourite snack for squirrels.





Good luck!
Theres a magical little device called a .22 rifle you may want to give a try.
They are bushy-tailed rats. Nick's response is the way to go or a BB if you live in a more densely inhabited area.
We just gave a squirrel on our balcony chocolate and haven't seen it since.
