  • Zero-Mess, No-Waste Lawn Protection: Every single ingredient is pre-shelled and hull-free. No empty seed shells drop to the ground, preventing grass damage and keeping your lawn pristine.
  • Premium Ingredients, Zero Fillers: Crafted using top-tier sunflower chips, diced tree nuts, split peanuts, cranberries, papaya, and juniper berries. Contains no cheap filler seeds like millet.
  • Compact and Practical Format: Weighing 1.5 lbs, this cylinder is ideal for lighter setups, seasonal feeding, or introducing a pest-free insect blend to your backyard habitat.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does this hot pepper seed cylinder attract bluebirds and wrens?
Yes. Bluebirds, wrens, and kinglets rarely visit standard seed feeders, but they are highly attracted to the dried mealworms and real fruit pieces in this specific gourmet blend.

Will hot pepper bird seed keep raccoons away too?
Yes. Raccoons, like squirrels, are mammals and have receptors that make them highly sensitive to the spicy capsaicin heat. Birds completely lack these receptors and are totally unaffected by the spice.

Is this 4" x 8" cylinder easy to install?
Extremely easy. It features a convenient pre-molded center hole that allows you to easily slide the cylinder onto any standard hanging pin feeder, post mount, or cylinder feeding station.

How long does a bird seed cylinder last compared to loose seed?
Compressed cylinders last significantly longer because birds must peck at the food rather than throwing loose seeds out of a traditional hopper feeder. This prevents rapid consumption and saves money.

Best Woodpecker and Finch ccylinders

The consistency, quality, and content of the seed cylinders are the best I have found. I have used 4 other brands of cylinders and none hold up to the hammering by woodpecker, weather ( rain and snow) and assaults by magpie and jays. The cylinders are packed with a variety of seeds, nuts, worms and fruit depending on the selection and I have used all of them. I won’t shop anywhere else and I’m a member of Cornell Lab of Ornithology and an avid birdwatcher.

The squirrel stopper hot pepper treated seed works great!

The birds love it, the squirrels hate it. Solved my problem of too many squirrels eating all the seed and scaring all the birds away from feeders.

Solid alternative to Mr Bird

We’ve been using Mr Bird for several years and have been completely satisfied with the hot pepper squirrel repellent. That said, the consistency of their cylinders and cakes has been declining over the past year — cylinders arriving in pieces, crumbling within a day on the feeders, and generally not exhibiting the “cohesiveness” in their habanero resin. We tried the JCS Wildlife brand as an alternative and were immediately impressed with the tight, solid cylinders. Squirrels haven’t appeared either, so right now we’re going to ride with this product.
