Description

Keep your backyard birds well fed while helping deter squirrels and other unwanted visitors with the JCS Wildlife Squirrel Stopper No-Mess, No-Waste Large Cylinder. This compressed hot pepper bird seed cylinder combines high-energy ingredients with natural capsaicin to help keep squirrels, raccoons, and rodents away from the feeder while attracting a variety of wild birds.

Made with bird-friendly ingredients and no cheap filler seeds like millet or milo, this hull-free blend helps reduce the mess and waste that can come with traditional loose bird seed.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Helps Deter Squirrels & Other Pests: Infused with natural capsaicin, the compound that gives hot peppers their heat. Mammals such as squirrels and raccoons are sensitive to capsaicin, while birds can eat the seed without experiencing the same sensation of heat.
  • Long-Lasting Large Cylinder: The solid 4.5 lb cylinder slows down feeding compared with loose bird seed. Birds peck directly at the cylinder, helping it last longer between refills.
  • No-Mess, No-Waste Formula: The ingredients are pre-shelled and hull-free, which means less discarded seed material beneath your feeder and fewer unwanted seed shells left behind.
  • Premium High-Energy Ingredients: Made with sunflower chips, shelled peanuts, tree nuts, raisins, and cranberries. The blend contains no millet or milo.
  • Attracts a Variety of Songbirds: Designed to attract cardinals, woodpeckers, chickadees, nuthatches, and titmice while helping discourage squirrels and other unwanted wildlife.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does hot pepper bird seed help deter squirrels?

Capsaicin is the compound responsible for the heat in hot peppers. Mammals such as squirrels and raccoons are sensitive to this sensation, while birds do not experience capsaicin's heat in the same way. This makes capsaicin-treated bird seed a popular way to help discourage squirrels while continuing to feed wild birds.

Will this hot pepper cylinder harm birds or my pets?

Capsaicin-treated bird seed is intended for wild birds and is formulated so birds can consume it. Pets that encounter the seed may strongly dislike the taste of the capsaicin. As with any bird food, keep the product stored safely away from pets and children.

How do I hang this bird seed cylinder?

The 4.5 lb Large Cylinder has a center hole that allows it to slide onto compatible standard cylinder feeders, post mounts, or hanging pin feeders.

How long does a bird seed cylinder last compared with loose seed?

Compressed cylinders can last longer than loose seed because birds peck at the compacted food rather than easily scattering individual seeds. This can help reduce waste and the frequency of refilling your feeder.

Great Product that WORKS!

I live next to a wetland and am lucky enough to have a variety of birds come through my yard, and they all seem to have made a stop at this cylinder! It's also a treat for all of the blackbirds, so you'll have them tear through this in no-time, but the squirrels and raccoons have 100% left it alone.

I Love Squirrels, But They Were Robbing me Blind

I like this stuff very much, and more importantly, the birds like it. I love squirrels too, but they were robbing me blind, and these things ain't cheap! My choices were to either stop feeding my lovely woodpeckers and Nuthatches, or try this. It worked!

Excellent product and service!

First, the product--excellent! The birds love it, and It truly does keep the squirrels away. Before we tried this Squirrel Stopper seed log, we had one squirrel that would scale our building to get to the feeder on our balcony on the second floor. When we put this one out there, he got up there again, tried it one time--and never came back! (I was lucky enough to be watching out the balcony door when it happened).

And it's also great because it only contains shelled seeds, so there's no mess that accumulates on the balcony. While some birds are pecking away at the seed log, there are others cleaning up the floor.

Second, the service--excellent! This was our third order with JCS, and just like with the first two orders, they got it out the door the same day (if order early enough in the day) and they use Fedex Ground, so I get my delivery in 2 to 3 days of when I ordered it. Couldn't ask for better, especially since shipping is included.

we put the block out on Nov 03

we put the block out on Nov 03, and the birds LOVE IT! they take turns - the pigeons in the morning and the small birds later in the morning and then the larger birds late in the day! It is so cool to see them when I look out the kitchen window.

Not for all birds but a nice alternative

I’ve decided to do these this year due to crazy squirrels and waste. So far, the birds have found it and seem to be liking it. I got the large cylinders so they’ll last, first one has been up a week and a half so far and there’s plenty left. This will probably change as it’s discovered. I don’t feed in the summer, due to bears. Juncos don’t seem to like it but woodpeckers, flickers, chickadees and nuthatches do.

Squirrel stopper suet works as advertised!

Came as described all intact. Maybe a little hard - birds have a tough time pecking into it. You might want to chip it a little to help the birds out. Once it begins to break up, birds not squirrels, love it. Our blackbirds will eat at it but not the doves. Best to use a baffle or some type of cover to help keep off the rain. Pleased with it.

A magnant !

Currently using Flaming Hot, but I have no doubt the birds will love this one as well. Nice convenience to tube feeders. Birds love the open-air accessibility. These cylinders are a magnant for all birds!

Birds love it

I purchased the red pepper seed logs, and my birds absolutely love it, especially the ones with meal worms. I’ve had toques, warblers, wood peckers, nuthatches, flickers,juncos chickadees, house finches, and more.

So far so good!

Haven’t seen any squirrels so far, and they cleared out my other feeders really quickly. I’ve seen some cardinals and black-capped chickadees, no woodpeckers yet but it might still be early. And the usual hoards of house sparrows.
All in all, good amount of seed for the price!
