Saw one on an episode of Bat-man. Or was that the shark repellant bat-spray.......? But yes, you can connect a steel plate to the tree they live in. Connect 120VAC to that bad boy and wait for the squirrel to have to cross the plate to get down from the tree.Are there electronic squirrel repellents?
We use slingshots and if you put your birdfeeder on a shepards hook and run a slinky up the hook it is hilarious to watch a squirrel bounce right off of it.

Good Squirrel and rabbit repellent?
I just planted new flowers and a small garden in my backyard. Already, squirrels and rabbits are digging in it. What is a good (safe) way to keep them out? I have heard of peppers and moth balls, but is there anything else?
P.S. Please don't say ';shoot them';!Good Squirrel and rabbit repellent?
There's not much that works in the way of deterents. Try a fence. You can build it with chicken wire and a few stakes.

What household product(s) can I use outdoors as a repellent for squirrels and rabbits?
the rabbits and squirrels are eating my rose moss in my landscaping. I am looking for a household remedy instead of chemical sprays.What household product(s) can I use outdoors as a repellent for squirrels and rabbits?
Try taking a bar of Irish Spring bar soap and shaving pieces of it about 1 or 2 feet away from the plants you want to protect. Make sure you do a complete circle around the plants. There are two other things you can do also. First one is plant Marigolds around the area you want to protect ( just like the Irish Spring soap, the little critters can't stand the smell). The second thing is to put a radio close to the area you want to protect, set the radio station to hard, metallica type rock music. You don't have to blare it just make sure it is audible if they get close. Hope this works for you.What household product(s) can I use outdoors as a repellent for squirrels and rabbits?
Get a big cat...
If you dilute some dish washing liquid with water in a spray bottle and spray the plants it will not only deter the rabbits and squirrels but also remove plant eating bugs. It is an old remedy passed on from generation to generation in my family. You obviously like animals or you would want to kill the rabbits and squirrels, so if you like having them around but not eating your flora you can offer them some food in a special place to ensure they are still taken care of but far away from your garden. On the positive side, if they eat long enough at your feeding spot they will deposit free natural fertilizer you can gather and use in your garden.
The best thing I have found is to get some moth balls and crush them slightly and either spread them around or put them in sachet bags and hang them close to the ground around your plants or garden.

You might try coyote scent. Unless you live in the country in which case the squirrels would be replaced by horney coyotes..
You can get it at any sports / hunting store.
Since my cat died, the arctic hare, chickadee, beaver, and varmint population in my yard has literally tripled, in the span of 6 months. Try getting a cat!!!

Anyone know of something I can put by my trash to keep squirrels away until I can get a can to put out there? This chunky little squirrel keeps ripping our trash out. It's driving me crazy! lol
Please help!! Thanks! =)Homemade squirrel repellent?
Blend together:
Hottest peppers you can find,
Garlic,
Enough water to be able to spray out a spray bottle.Homemade squirrel repellent?
Spray amonia in the bag before you close it.
Borrow the neighbor's CAT
I use cayenne powder in my birdseed to keep out squirrels, maybe you could sprinkle some on/around the bag?
Does your trash can have handles? If so, loop a peice of heavy twine through the handles to keep the lid on tight.
Oh...and make sure your trashcan has a lid too.

Is there a squirrel repellent?
im having a problem with squirrels getting under my hood of my car and nesting and chewing wire'sIs there a squirrel repellent?
There's a hot pepper spray that keeps squirrels out of our sweet corn in the garden, but it's kinda waxy and I don't know what it might do to your car.Is there a squirrel repellent?
You may want to saturate an old rag with urine from a predator. Maybe you can use dog urine. It sounds gross, but may help to deter them if they think the dog will come back under the hood of your car in their tiny brains. I suggest the towel instead of spraying it in there. It is quite acidic and could corrode some important mechanisms in your engine. Maybe even the hot pepper spray on a towel instead of spraying in the engine.
Two options. First a 22 or good pellet gun. Second, encourage them. Remove your engine and replace it with squirrel cages connected to a generator. The first squirrel hybrid. Sometimes I just can't help myself. RScott
Put cayenne pepper in a sock and put it under the hood,take out when in use or place it in a crack where it wont jostle loose.
You can try putting a dried hot pepper around the hood of your car. The smell burns their nose and if they were to lick their paws it would burn their mouth.
yeah a 30-O6. I need one for my house too. Don't like blood, try moth balls.
:)
no, there isn't. the only remedy i have ever had success with was a .12 gauge.
Ciyite urine comes in a bottle, it works on deer in an orchard. Try that.
not that i kno of..
maybe get a special clip for the hood of the car.
