Living with Birds NutBox™ Squirrel Feeder

A squirrel feeding station can be an excellent way to observe wildlife in your backyard. You can attract squirrels and other small animals by setting up a designated spot with food like nuts and seeds. This allows you to watch their behaviours and interactions up close. It's important to place the feeding station away from bird feeders to keep the squirrels from eating all the bird food and to give birds and squirrels their own space.

Using a squirrel feeder can protect your bird feeders by giving squirrels their own food source. Place the squirrel feeder in a different part of your garden, away from the bird feeders. Fill it with foods that squirrels love, like nuts, corn, and sunflower seeds. This way, squirrels have their own feeding spot and are less likely to bother your bird feeders.

For the best results, mount your NutBox™ squirrel feeder in a quiet part of your garden, away from bird feeders and busy walkways. Pick an easily reachable spot, like close to trees or a fence. Ensure the feeder is at least 5 feet off the ground to keep other animals from reaching it. This way, you attract squirrels while keeping them away from bird feeders, helping to keep your garden peaceful.

The NutBox is made from sustainably sourced timber. Its design is durable and does not require paint or preservatives. The front of the feeder features a clear perspex screen so squirrels can see the food inside, encouraging them to access the food by lifting the hinged lid.
