slightly off subject, we have a few wild pear trees beside the veg patch(to help the local bugs to breed and survive the winters) and have several feeders hanging to keep the birds going, the other day I sprayed some peanuts with oil and then sprinkled them with paprika before putting them into the feeders, half an hour later I saw mommy squirrel sitting there, with three youngsters beside her, all lined up, she was pulling faces, so she had been trying the peanuts, I hope she teaches them to go elsewhere now, they left after about 10mins so hopefully they wont be back, they had already ruined 3 feeders so far this winter so I wont miss them.....

I was reading an article today about making fat balls & apparently a touch of chilli has the same effect.sigpic“Gorillas are very intelligent, but they don't have to be as delicate as chimps -- they can just smash open the termite nest,”

been there, done it, during my military service but not very filling, probably need 2 for a good meal, probably like rabbit, no fats so you could eat them each day and die of malnutrition, but would make the Barbie more interesting, maybe with some roasted peanuts as a side dish...........
as birds have no tongue (for tasting) it doesn't really matter how hot you make the nuts by covering them with paprika....Last edited by BUFFS; 18-11-2013, 01:30 PM.
