During the winter months, I keep my seed and suet feeders inside my fenced garden. That way, it keeps squirrels and other mammals out and adds a small amount of fertilizer (droppings, shelled seeds). It's a pleasure to see them every morning!
Tell me of this magical squirrel repelling fence
It's just loose chicken wire on the top of the fence, about 24" of it all the way around, structured haphazardly. It is only tacked to the top of the fence and is very wobbly, stable enough only for small birds (chickadee size). I put it on to deter groundhogs from getting a good footing, but it seems to keep the squirrels out too. Not necessarily foolproof because squirrels are totally ninjas.
Wait, chickenadeets are a real thing? I've only ever heard the word (and in a human context, no less)
Yup! We get black-capped chickadees, very cute and very bold!
It says "all over North America" but I've never seen them in the Southwest. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chickadee
Oh, those are tits?!
You American prudes need to catch up on your potty humour and ornithology (not sure if thats the correct word for it)
It uses electrons!
