Description
Tired of watching squirrels empty your feeder before the birds get a chance? Brown's Fire Mix is a natural, inexpensive way to reclaim your backyard. This hot pepper powder blends into any wild bird seed — birds can't detect the heat, but squirrels and chipmunks get one taste and take their appetites elsewhere. No traps, no chemicals, no feeder acrobatics required.
Key Features
- Naturally effective: Capsaicin heat deters squirrels and chipmunks without harming them — they simply stop coming back.
- Birds don't notice: Wild birds lack the receptors to taste the heat, so feeder visits carry on uninterrupted.
- Protects your investment: Stops seed loss and the feeder damage that comes with determined furry raiders.
- Simple to use: One 4 oz shaker treats multiple batches of seed.
- Feeder-friendly: Works with any seed blend and any feeder style.
Directions
Lightly coat 5 lbs of bird seed with a small amount of vegetable oil so the powder adheres. Add one tablespoon of Fire Mix, blend thoroughly, and let dry before filling your feeder. Wash hands after handling and avoid touching your eyes — it's real pepper heat.
