Electrified Bird Feeder Scares Squirrels Away FARM HOME Miscellaneous Looking for a way to feed birds without having to watch squirrels steal the feed? Here s a simple feeder that handles the job by giving squirrels a bit of a shock
If a squirrel climbs onto the Squirrel Boss bird feeder you just press a button on a special remote control and the squirrel gets a shock The squirrel dislikes the sensation enough that after a correction or two it will stay away The remote works from up to 200 ft away from the feeder
The system comes with a clear plastic feed tube wired for electricity a solar-powered roof a false roof an AC adapter to charge the solar roof if needed and a remote control with holder
The solar-powered roof contains all the shocking mechanism components including the solar panel and 2 metal posts that fit into slots on the feeder tube and double as contacts The false roof mounts under the live roof and connects to the feed tube
The remote control is fun to use and is safe because it doesn t produce a charge until you want it to And the charge is equivalent to a static shock so it won t hurt anyone says inventor Glenn Johnson
According to Johnson the AC adapter is necessary to use only if you don t have direct sunlight where you hang the feeder
Sells for $98 plus $9 95 S&H
