These Pine Tree Farms Log Jammers build hot pepper into a suet plug for log-style feeders, using capsaicin that birds cannot taste but squirrels and other mammals find overwhelming. Woodpeckers, nuthatches, and chickadees feed normally while raiders are deterred from the plugs.
Push them into a suet-plug log feeder where squirrels are a problem, handling the plugs with care since the pepper is hot to the touch. Each pack holds three plugs and the dozen-pack keeps a contested feeder protected.
Pine Tree Farms has produced suet and seed products in Hempstead, New York for years, including the Log Jammer suet-plug line.
