Could I use this to scare squirrels who get into a bird feeder?

Only if they are afraid of music and the squirrels and the feeder are inside . It is not to be mounted outside in the elements . It plays a lot of different little tunes.

I have used the one door trap and got many many squirrels. It worked very well for me and very bad for the Squirrels.

Will work if feeder can accept 4 screws or bolts through bottom to attach to plate at top if pole. We use an Audubon Torpedo baffle on the pole itself to keep squirrels from climbing the pole. It works.

I think it could have the capacity to scare off any bird, for a short period of time. Once they get used to it, it's a bit less effective.

Not sure about that, but why wouldn't it? It seems to scare any birds that would otherwise come on to the porch.

it might but not sure as it works on a pole preventing a squirrel from going up

This feeder is not designed to be squirrel proof. We would recommend hanging the feeder from a baffler to keep the squirrels from getting to it.

We used it for squirrels at a bird feeder and it was totally ineffective, I doubt that it would work any better to keep dogs from peeing on a bush

Definitely not squirrel proof. go to birdfeeder.com and check out the squirrel proof feeders, then search for it on Amazon for best price.

This product has not been tested to repel ground squirrels. We would not recommend using it for this purpose. We apologize for the inconvenience.

I don't think a baffle would work with this. When I had a squirrel problem in a past house, I used a feeder that was pole mounted, and had a weight-activated perch. Something similar to the Heritage Farms Absolute II Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder that can be found here on Amazon. That kind of feeder worked great to keep squirrels from eating up all the bird food.

You can try-but it did not work well for keepong squirrels away. I have detered the squirrels by using cayenne pepper & moth ball squares and so far NO more squirrels. Be careful with cayenne pepper-it will burn skin & eyes.

I wish I knew how to answer your question, but I really don't know ! I love how mine works perfectly for keeping the squirrels away :-)

I would ask the manufacturer. It works great on gophers but I've never tried on squirrels. Sorry

It's worth a try. I've given up trying to deter the squirrels - I just fill the feeders and watch who gets there first!!!!! With 6 different feeders, I'm sure birds and squirrels alike all get something!!!!

Yes! The noise this Sentinel makes will scare off animals! Place it where the plants are, pointing it forward to detect any animals.

I used them to try to discourage a raccoon from climbing a post, but they just bent the spikes out of the way. Perhaps a squirrel wouldn't be strong (or smart enough) to do that.
