came, nibbled through the net it was hanging from and ate the lot.


I've modified it.

The hook or the Squirrel?


lol

I splashed out for squirrel proof feeders, they turned out to be an
excellent buy. then I bought fat balls, hung them in one of the wire
cages (sans netting). Up until then the squirrels had not even bothered
to visit the feeders but that brought them back. I have yet to find a
way to stop them pinching the balls, any ideas would be gratefully accepted.


You may want to have a look at the range of squirrel proof feeders at
