I am obsessed these days with protecting my little fruit left over on my Peach tree from the squirrels ;). I tried all the popular cures, besides even talking to them and reprimanding them ;))

  • Hanging pie pans from the tree, to distract squirrels and birds with shine and clutter.
  • Hanging old CD’s for the reflections of light to confuse them.
  • Spraying  red pepper spray on fruits suggested by my friends who read Martha Stewarts hints.

Nothing worked. Hence I am trying out this new invention.

  • Hanging strings of Jingle bells on the branches to confuse them with jingling sounds when they climb the branches!
  • Hanging a wind chime on a strong branch to create a constant noise confusion!

It had kept the squirrels away since couple of hours.  But will keep you posted of how this works out!!

My daughter snapped some pics of the squirrels in action!  Check out the  cute  little devils!
