Great! I've been using this method for years on voles and it has always worked perfectly. The only difference is I used plain flour not cornmeal. I also added some sugar. We once had over 200 vole holes in our backyard (small grassy area). I simply poured the mixture into their holes. Within a couple months all the holes filled in and the voles were gone. Thanks for the scientific experiment on a squirrel. They attack our garden and also carry diseases and ticks. Thanks much!
As a workplace colleague of mine told me years ago about squirrels: They are rats with fluffy tails. A friend of mine had his house burnt down from what the fire inspectors determined were squirrels chewing at the electrical wiring in the attic of the house.
One of my viewers just recently conveyed to me that it was a squirrel which chewed the wiring on the neighbors home and it burnt to the ground as a result.
I have a medium sized backyard. My next-door neighbor began feeding walnuts to the squirrels and every day they would come into our yard and bury/dig up them. We had so many holes in our lawns and potted plants. One day I was watching one hopping around our lawn looking for his walnuts. I was thinking, "Boy their noses must be SO sensitive to smell a nut that was buried." Then it came to me. If their noses are THAT sensitive, maybe there is something that they can smell that would be uncomfortable to their noses. The first thing that came to mind was ONION, so I got an onion and cut it up and strew it around my hard, my veggie garden, on top of my pergola, on the roof of my shed. The next day I was in my backyard and all of a sudden, I felt strange. Almost eerie. Something was different. NO SQUIRRELS! After a day or so, I saw one with a nut in its mouth. Now usually they would run along my back fence, climb down my tree and come into the yard but instead now they run up the telephone/cable pole to the highest wire connected and run past my yard! It is hysterical how they will do anything to not come into my yard. One day two were chasing each other and were speeding across the fence, one kept going but the other started to come down the tree. All of a sudden it was like it realized where it was going and hie tailed it back up the tree. Now once a week I go and give them what they apparently HATE. Onions. It's been three weeks and still no squirrels in my yard.
I have a lot of chipmunks and squirrels in my yard because of my neighbor feeding them. However I also have a lot of Jackrabbits does this mix affect them?
You know what is mean and cruel, the damage done by these rodents. Thousands of dollars spent on wiring and gas cans and it is hard to stay ahead of them.
Cornmeal mixed with a little honey also kills ants, in the same way. I got rid of a colony of ants in my house several years ago using this method. I watched them lined up on my kitchen counter digging into the pile of cornmeal and taking it back to the nest. The little pile disappeared and so did the ants.
I have never tried it on squirrels but I guarantee it will kill every rat and mouse that eats it.. after trying everything I could buy with no results. I (had) a huge problem with packrats and field mice on my farm.. a old farmer showed me this trick a few years ago and as long as I keep this mixture out I rarely ever have pests anymore.. best thing only cost a buck$...
I got a real problem with squirrels up in my shed attic. These ones are really smart. They come down the plank and eat the peanut butter, but don't venture into the cage trap set for them . I hate to do it , but I need to kill them, otherwise they may chew wiring and cause problems like fires. Thank you for uploading this video.
My neighbors house just burned down because of squirrels people think oh how cute they are but they can cause serious damage to your house once they get inside
The big Victor rat traps (wood base with spring arm) will work on greys squirrels most times it usually cracks them in the head hard enough to injure them and definitely works on chipmunks.

@archangel20031 yeah, I had one die in my wall once and it stunk for over a month. I didn't know what it was because it was the first time I experienced such a thing. Nasty!
What a great selective poison . I try to explain the secondary poisoning risk to those who don't like traps. But this mix is the best solution. Many thanks for sharing.
Thanks Jerry for demonstrating the practical means of dealing with rodents, AKA Vermin. I too live in the Great PNW and used to feed birds a lot, but it also attracted Chippers and squirrels. They are cute and all but made a mess of my wood shed with piles of fir cone remnants everywhere. So I don't feed the birds anymore and Love Cornmeal & Bicarb. Thanks.
@@michaeldavid6284 The active ingredient is the baking soda not the neutral ingredient used to attract them. He said you could use anything in your cupboard that they are trying to get into as the second component. Maybe you should get you ears checked before your start insulting others. Makes you look both arrogant and stupid.
Im glad that I found this page, I have a whole family of them. Living under a tree in my backyard, they have ripe my yard up. holes everywhere. Thanks for sharing this

We had all our feed & storage bins lined in lite gauge stainless steel. Not terribly expensive because we bought 4x8 ft sheets and bent and welded ourselves then built wood frames around them. They were rodent proof, didn't hold moisture and lasted the 35 yrs we owned the farm. We used feed bags on the horses and kept them in one bin. I wish we would have known about the "rodent gourmet dessert mix". That would have been very handy! Instead we had Miniature Pinschers and Jack Russell's to keep the rodent population down. I may mix up some to use around our sheds, so thanks for the instructions!
I have squirrels that chew through my fuel lines / electrical in my vehicles. Every year it cost me around 3-4 hundred dollars. I have tried spraying soapy water etc. I am going to do this. I am also losing chickens to something. Not weasels. Feathers everywhere in my chicken run. Nature takes we need to protect.
Normally I don't mind the squirrels. However, this past spring/summer they have chewed their way through the wood (cedar) of my eaves and are now behind my gutters and I'm my garage attic. I'm going to try this immediately. I also have a couple of mice in my garage. They are going to get the same treatment.
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 thanks for caring what happens to our properties and gardens..........you are valuable, and may God bless you beyond measure.
This past spring/summer, squirrels debarked 6 of our Japanese maples. I sprayed those trees with capsaicin extract, so they moved on to debarking an oak tree and gnawing at the siding of our house. Im going to try this.
I never killed a rodent with baking soda but it sure killed my acid reflux. I had a few bouts of it in the middle of the night. I would wake up with an awful burning in my throat from stomach acids backing up. A teaspoon of baking soda in some tonic water or pop works great. I stirred it and drank it before it stopped fizzing. It wasn't the most pleasant but I got instant results. It stopped the acid reflux and killed the burning in my throat. I passed that on to my boss and he said it was the best thing he has found for heartburn. This has nothing to do with rodents but it can be very helpful if you wake up in the middle of the night and your throat feels like it's on fire. Just another use for baking soda.
@roblow5522 nothing works better than organic apple cider vinegar when dealing with stomach issues. Using baking soda is just putting a bandaid on the issue. OACV works so well to the point that your stomach problems will go away. Never drink it by itself, I use to add 2 tablespoons to 1 8oz glass of water. Now I only need it once in a while if I eat something my stomach doesn't agree with.
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 it's likely h pylori and mastic gum and manuka honey for a month will fix that. Google the doses. I was dying from h pylori!!
Thanks for the info. Squirrels have done do much damage to my storage shed. They also raid my Fig, Apple, Pear, Apricot and Peach trees and don't leave much for me. Recently squirrels chewed up the battery and cables on my Son in Law's truck. He had to get a new battery and replace the battery cables. They are destructive pests.
I suppose it would work for groundhogs. I’ve shot a couple this year and they must have been killed by lead poisoning. The pellets didn’t but shock the animal and it took a few days to a week for them to die in an open spot on the ground. They didn’t stay in their den and die. I’m not really sure but I would prefer your method. The squirrels haven’t been running off with my tomatoes in a couple years so they haven’t bothered me but in years past they could wipe out my tomatoes. So strange how they quit eating them. They knew not to eat green ones too.
It’s to bad that it takes that long to kill them but if it works ( and I’m going to try) I’ll use it. The squirrels here have gotten so bad that I didn’t get a single nut from my tree last year.
Just came across your educational video. I have an infestation of squirrels in the attic. First time in 71 years squirrels have invaded the attic. The recipe is very good and look forward to using it. Being handicap, I have to hire help to put into the attic but, you have given me hope.
After watching your last video on this, I put the mixture out in my backyard 2 days ago for the first time where I had seen a couple of rats. Let’s see what happens! I am hopeful!!
Happy to help. Here is another program I film for your enjoyment. This is with my neighbor and friend across the road from me. th-cam.com/video/OP4a6vxIfAs/w-d-xo.html
I'll have to try that! 25cal Benjamin Marauder has been doing an outstanding job on squirrels since 2014. I don't have a farm like you, just a house with a large fenced in yard. They were entering my home and digging up my wife's garden.
I'm going to try mixing B Soda with peanut butter, make little balls with it, coat it in flour so dirt doesn't stick to it and drop them down the holes. If this works I'm going to come back here and report on it. First I'm going to test that the peanut butter doesn't deactivate the B Soda. I'll mix it up, wait 24 hours, and drop bits of it into vinegar and see if it foams up.
You cannot let the baking soda get wet. However you can blend it with peanut butter. The peanut oil will allow you to shape the compound into balls that you can dispense inside of peanut shells.
I might have to give that a shot. I tried grinding unsalted peanuts in my food processor into (almost) a powder. I did see several interested in it today, kinda picking at it and testing it.
I mixed peanut butter with baking soda and cornmeal sprinkled with birdseed..🤞🏼🤞🏼 I’ve trapped and relocated almost 40 tree rats but there’s just 1 that will NOT go in the trap…
Thanks much for trapping and relocating. I'm so much for that, I can't even watch him kill this squirrel. I mean the little guy is already caught and caged and the last thing I need is to watch an animal that is going to suffer terribly then die just to prove a point. I guess I just don't get how someone can be so nonchalant about unnecessary killing.
Thanks for this video. I was looking for something less dangerous than rat/mouse traps, because birds try to eat from them sometimes. I will try this tomorrow
The squirrels dug up my flowerbed this year and i also have mice and something digging holes in my backyard. THIS IS PERFECT and inexpensive! thank you
Thank you so much for the information. I had a flying squirrel chewing at night and day by the eves on my house. So loud it woke me up . I did not know what to do. Never had this problem in 50 years. So i put the mixture by all the down spouts. It worked it is gone. I got a good night sleep! Thank you. ❤
Thank you. Very educational. I’ve been trying to get rid of squirrels in my yard due to them digging in my flowers and several other things. We also have moles that make our yard look like a minefield. And tunnels everywhere. I have been trapping squirrels and relocating but they don’t seem to be interested that anymore. I’m definitely going to try your method. Thank you again.
Glad it was helpful! I recently had to dispatch a squirrel which created over $500.00 damage on my septic drain field system.

I tried a 50/50 mix of cornbread with baking soda but the grey squirrels wont touch it. Ive seen them walk up to it, sniff it and walk away. Should I add sugar or peanut butter to the mix? Im thinking peanut butter due to attracting smell of the peanut butter. Suggestions?
I did it with WHITE FLOUR... BAKING SODA and WHITE SUGAR. I also added peanut butter to attract them real good. It worked No more cute little furry demons eating my balcony chairs 😊❤
We pest controllers in the UK have known that for years. A mixture of flavour ( nuts for squirrels or chicken for rats) mixed with plaster of Paris solidifies in their stomachs after they drink. The problem is, it is not humane and takes too long. We are working on sterilisation to rid our country of grey squirrels through special feeding hoppers that only the heavier greys can get to but the smaller red squirrels cannot. The aim is after 10 years or so there won’t be any breading of them left. Greys being an invasive species here in the UK. They could try the same method to stop pythons breading in the Everglades.
We haven’t gotten to enjoy any fox squirrels, for decades. The cat squirrels moved in and I guess ran them off. Heck, they may have died. Those cat squirrels are a complete nuisance
I used this on mice and it is AMAZING! Im now going to use it on the squirrels out in pasture as they are so dangerous to horse and rider with their holes! THANK YOU
Exactly what I was looking for. I have seen this mentioned elsewhere however it wasn't tested nor verification that no harm to other animals other than rodents was verified.
I have been using it for a year and a half. No other critter has been harmed (that I know of) All my pets and livestock are still here. AND I still see the beneficial wildlife meandering about.
@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 thank you I appreciate your input. This seemed like the best route for me, I have quite a few beneficial critters that I want to protect.
If they have become wary of traps, try setting a dish of the baking soda mixture out WITHOUT putting it in a trap. Yeah, you probably won't be able to find the bodies later to dispose of them. But they won't be scared away from the bait by a trap either, and most important.....they'll be GONE.
I bought two 30 dollar traps and was using poison. They didn't use it till I poured organic peanut butter oil on it. Now, I'm going to use this method and see if I can't bury me some holes around me. Cave in some tunnels and level off my usable property.
Thanks I will try this. So far I've tried mechanisms that shine a light on motion or make a noise, I've tried spikes across the fence, fake owls some that have moving heads, netting and more. I haven't got a peach off of any of my trees or an apricot the entire many years that I've had the trees because the squirrels devastate them. Desperate in Texas
Great video, will give this a try, a neighbour at the back of us keeps feeding grey squirrels and pigeons, the squirrels then come into our garden dig at our lawn to burry the nuts and also dig at our planters looking for bulbs and they have been crawling all over the outside of our house. Have to make sure we keep windows closed. Keep fearing they will get into our loft and cause damage. Such a pest (the neighbours) and the squirrels
Great info! Do you or any of your viewers have suggestion on a bait station to keep the ingredients out of weather and dry? Will moisture/rain/snow reduce effectiveness once wet? Just found your channel, will be searching your content for more, thanks!
Thank you for sharing this concoction. We have a horrible chipmunk problem here in the Pacific NW. They literally ate my entire strawberry patch of green berries within 2 nights. They eat all my leafy garden veggies and dig in my flower pots. Not to mention they made a nest in my air filter compartment in my vehicle. 😮 I am totally going to put some of this out tomorrow!
I was skeptical, but this was cheap so I gave it a try. I had squirrels getting into my soffits. I patched up the holes but they were scratching on the side of the house at 5 in the morning trying to get back in. I live in a heavily forested area. Since I put it out I have not seen a single squirrel. I think 50/50 mix was a little too heavy of the baking soda. I mixed it by eye so it still looked yellow. I used Jiffy corn muffin mix, regular, not the honey stuff.
So I have a camper. Can you put a bowl of this out before you store it for the winter and will it last for rodents without getting moldy? Great video by the way.
Thank you for this valuable information. The squirrels here like to eat the chickens' food and since I had an "egg layer mix" out, they multiplied bigly this spring. The resident mice completely trashed the lawnmower shed over the winter. Someone told me that rodents don't like moth balls, so that is (apparently) keeping them out of the shed at this time, but I was still collecting 2-3 mice (tiny ones) a day... I'm sure this will cut down on that number. Will put it in small containers around the outside of the chicken fence. :) Thanks again!
I have never heard of using baking soda as being used for rodent control. Thanks for sharing. Good luck with dealing with tree huggers and animal rights peeps.
Our municipality has a vector control office of which we pay taxes to for them to kill pests. Also, there are many many companies whom make a living killing pests.
Thank you for posting this video. Do you simply mix equal parts dry baking soda and dry cornbread together and shake it up and leave out as a powder or do you add any kind of liquid, etc. Just curious on the preparation process.
I have Douglas squirrels that are really cute but very aggressive. They are psychos and scare off big grey squirrels. The pair that has claimed our deck I call 'Mr. and Mrs. Disney' because they are surreally adorable.
My fruit trees have been striped by squirrels during the day and rats in the night. By the beginning of July everything is gone. Rat traps worked well but I had undesirable results with birds and lizards. I can’t wait to try the cornbread mix. I have armadillos but I haven’t determined them to do any harm. They root but it seems for bugs not vegetable roots.
Sorry to hear that. Stay tuned, I am getting many viewers telling me of the problem with these critters eating their fruit and nuts. I have come up with a simple inexpensive idea which may help you all and your problem.
QUESTION👋: FOR LONG TERM out of town protection - IF I am not worried about PETS at all - WHAT other poisons work against SQUIRRELS that are not affected by humidity... I need something I can lay out for a long time....⁉
Did we see a dead squirrell? As far as "mean and cruel" is concerned you might witness a squirrel eating songbirds eggs and hatchlings as I have. P.S. Are cardinals a songbird? Bug you get the point.
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319Glad you cleared that up. Because of the lighting. I couldn't tell from the video what was in the cage and you never said what animal it was. (Now I just watched the video again and realized that I was too focused on the goats.)

Please GOOGEL "Squirrels eating birds" and watch. H O R R I F I C. These creeps are BEASTS. I will NEVER treat them kindly again. Not on my farm when I'm raising baby ducks, chicks, turkeys and gosslings.
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 Squirrels are pests and need to be dealt with accordingly when needed, but to say they are "beasts" in a derogatory sense because they eat birds is just like saying a snake is terrible for eating a rodent. It does what it does. Besides, you stated in another video that you welcome animals that will eat your chicken eggs so you make sure they can't get to them. You sounds like a fake environmentalist (aka religious environmentalist) sometimes. Don't let your feels get in the way of your environmentalism, it degrades your credibility.
We live in the country in Northern California. We have a huge squirrel problem. I can’t use poisons due to the wildlife that we have in and around the property. This works. For anybody reading this please know that this system works. One of the dogs ate this mixture, threw up, and doesn’t touch it now. She learned. Thanks for making this video. God bless.
Thank you for all this information. Do you know if it would also kill rabbits? I'm thinking yes because they are rodents too, but hoping maybe they are too big?
The Mayor of New York needs to order this for the subway system
Yes they do.
They need to bring some boa constructors and pythons as well.
An excellent idea!

gross
Hello from the quiet sunny Ozarks! I use that all around my home and it works great. I also spray vinager solution around my home to cover up the scents other critters spray. i also use a portable solar electric fence to keep the black bears and wild hogs away. thanks for another video of value. Tight lines!
Nice tip. Thanks.
Figures a redneck
That duck soup doesn't look fully cooked. Thanks for the tip.
Jerry you are the man. Great video! I saw your previous one on this topic and went out and bought the ingredients. Mixed it up and bam!! No more mice and chipmunks on my property. Love your common sense advise. All the best to you and your family!
Awesome! Thank you!
Do you know if this mix will kill woodchucks?
I dunno.
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 GREAT video, Jerry, and thanks for sharing! I just noticed a mother squirrel and her FIVE kids under my back shed and was wondering if I could replace the Jiffy product with the less expensive generic store brand. Please let me know and thanks for your help!
DITTO !!!
Absolutely will try this. I hate using my poison and traps. Now I'll put this in my traps instead.
I wish you well on this.
Thank you very much.
You are welcome!
Did this guy really say a dead rodent in your home will only stink for 10 days?
It makes for a long 10 days.
@archangel20031 yeah, I had one die in my wall once and it stunk for over a month. I didn't know what it was because it was the first time I experienced such a thing. Nasty!
Thank you ! Again just watch your updated version.
So happy it’ll work on squirrels too. Buying by the truck load hahahaha
Happy Friday from So Calif
Right on!
What a great selective poison . I try to explain the secondary poisoning risk to those who don't like traps. But this mix is the best solution. Many thanks for sharing.
Which is why I like using it alone.
Thanks Jerry for demonstrating the practical means of dealing with rodents, AKA Vermin. I too live in the Great PNW and used to feed birds a lot, but it also attracted Chippers and squirrels. They are cute and all but made a mess of my wood shed with piles of fir cone remnants everywhere. So I don't feed the birds anymore and Love Cornmeal & Bicarb. Thanks.
Thank you.
Jerry I lived in Oregon
Good info. I have squirrels which are a problem. Thanks!
No problem!
Tried baking soda and the corn meal combination but it unfortunately had NO effect on mama squirrel and her SIX babies!
He clearly says in the video to use CORNBREAD mix, not corn meal. Time to clean the wax out of your ears or get a hearing aid.
@@michaeldavid6284 The active ingredient is the baking soda not the neutral ingredient used to attract them. He said you could use anything in your cupboard that they are trying to get into as the second component. Maybe you should get you ears checked before your start insulting others. Makes you look both arrogant and stupid.
@@michaeldavid6284 I think the mix includes sugar so that makes sense.
Yes the corn BREAD mix. NOT cornmeal.
@@kathygriffin9465
I used plain white flour baking soda and sugar. I got fancy and mixed peanut butter in it. NO MORE SQUIRRELS ON MY BALCONY 😊
Im glad that I found this page, I have a whole family of them. Living under a tree in my backyard, they have ripe my yard up. holes everywhere. Thanks for sharing this
Rock on!
Hello Jerry. We too live in the forest and are constantly at war with rodents. I am going to add your remedy to our arsenal. Thanks for this, Ben
Best of luck there Ben.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! I LOVE YOU! I HOPE IT WORKS FOR ME.
Have fun!
Great info thank you.
Very welcome
I was surprised watching the final episode of Homestead rescue to see where they visited your homestead by in S2E2, hey! I know that guy from his TH-cam videos. They were previewing previous episodes that were unique. Good for you and your family. Your doing well
I posted this on my channel for those fans whom wanted to know a bit more about the outcome of being a part of the Homestead Rescue Family. Enjoy. th-cam.com/video/4ORu1u81pEo/w-d-xo.html
We had all our feed & storage bins lined in lite gauge stainless steel. Not terribly expensive because we bought 4x8 ft sheets and bent and welded ourselves then built wood frames around them. They were rodent proof, didn't hold moisture and lasted the 35 yrs we owned the farm. We used feed bags on the horses and kept them in one bin. I wish we would have known about the "rodent gourmet dessert mix". That would have been very handy! Instead we had Miniature Pinschers and Jack Russell's to keep the rodent population down. I may mix up some to use around our sheds, so thanks for the instructions!
I store all my feed it metal trash cans.
Thanks , got some targets, sounds like good stuff.
Hope you enjoy
I have squirrels that chew through my fuel lines / electrical in my vehicles. Every year it cost me around 3-4 hundred dollars. I have tried spraying soapy water etc. I am going to do this. I am also losing chickens to something. Not weasels. Feathers everywhere in my chicken run. Nature takes we need to protect.
I leave the hood up on my vehicles which are stored. Especially my tractor. I no longer have rodent problems on the engines.
Thank you for this useful information, and God bless you!
Glad to help.
I mixed it up with french vanilla coffee creamer.
Nice.
Great video, we're in Alabama, I am going to try this. I have been using traps and poison. Coming to Oregon next week to visit my dad in Eugene.
My daughter lives there.
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 Your daughter has good taste! LOL
Oregon geography is great but I am not a fan of the politics and homeless.
Normally I don't mind the squirrels. However, this past spring/summer they have chewed their way through the wood (cedar) of my eaves and are now behind my gutters and I'm my garage attic. I'm going to try this immediately. I also have a couple of mice in my garage. They are going to get the same treatment.
They damage they cause is horrible.

I had never imagined this would be that effective. Thanks. Genius.
You bet!
This past spring/summer, squirrels debarked 6 of our Japanese maples. I sprayed those trees with capsaicin extract, so they moved on to debarking an oak tree and gnawing at the siding of our house. Im going to try this.
Oh no. Go for it. th-cam.com/video/NUuqAmE1NE8/w-d-xo.html
Yes I live in Florida and I definitely will try that I have a lot of squirrels around my home. Thank you for the video. 👍
Good luck!
I never killed a rodent with baking soda but it sure killed my acid reflux. I had a few bouts of it in the middle of the night. I would wake up with an awful burning in my throat from stomach acids backing up. A teaspoon of baking soda in some tonic water or pop works great. I stirred it and drank it before it stopped fizzing. It wasn't the most pleasant but I got instant results. It stopped the acid reflux and killed the burning in my throat. I passed that on to my boss and he said it was the best thing he has found for heartburn. This has nothing to do with rodents but it can be very helpful if you wake up in the middle of the night and your throat feels like it's on fire. Just another use for baking soda.
I eat a dill pickle for my acid reflux.
@roblow5522 nothing works better than organic apple cider vinegar when dealing with stomach issues. Using baking soda is just putting a bandaid on the issue. OACV works so well to the point that your stomach problems will go away. Never drink it by itself, I use to add 2 tablespoons to 1 8oz glass of water. Now I only need it once in a while if I eat something my stomach doesn't agree with.
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 it's likely h pylori and mastic gum and manuka honey for a month will fix that. Google the doses. I was dying from h pylori!!
Good information. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video and great information.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the info. Squirrels have done do much damage to my storage shed. They also raid my Fig, Apple, Pear, Apricot and Peach trees and don't leave much for me. Recently squirrels chewed up the battery and cables on my Son in Law's truck. He had to get a new battery and replace the battery cables. They are destructive pests.
Thanks for sharing
I suppose it would work for groundhogs. I’ve shot a couple this year and they must have been killed by lead poisoning. The pellets didn’t but shock the animal and it took a few days to a week for them to die in an open spot on the ground. They didn’t stay in their den and die. I’m not really sure but I would prefer your method. The squirrels haven’t been running off with my tomatoes in a couple years so they haven’t bothered me but in years past they could wipe out my tomatoes. So strange how they quit eating them. They knew not to eat green ones too.
Glad you found a solution.
Dang it...
I was hoping it would work on skunks.
Oh well.
Back to the drawing board!
Skunks can be a menace but they do eat mice.
It’s to bad that it takes that long to kill them but if it works ( and I’m going to try) I’ll use it. The squirrels here have gotten so bad that I didn’t get a single nut from my tree last year.
These critters are destructive. They chewed my wiring, undermined my foundation causing it to crack. Bad, bad, bad.
Squirrels have stolen whole trees of fruit and nuts here. ALL the apples, pecans, nectarines. Regards from far north California
Me too, we have a nut tree, and in three years I havent been able to enjoy one nut because squirrels pick them all off before they're ready.
Oh no.
Get a .22 or a good pellet rifle.
Squirrel is good eating.
glad the background music stopped, it was distracting .......thanks
Sorry to hear that
Just came across your educational video. I have an infestation of squirrels in the attic. First time in 71 years squirrels have invaded the attic. The recipe is very good and look forward to using it. Being handicap, I have to hire help to put into the attic but, you have given me hope.
Glad it was helpful!
will they end up dying in the roof then... there is no way to get rid of those dead body...
Did this help?
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
After watching your last video on this, I put the mixture out in my backyard 2 days ago for the first time where I had seen a couple of rats. Let’s see what happens! I am hopeful!!
Best of luck on the effectiveness for you.
Its been 2 months. Did it work?
? Rip the rats ?
Thank you for the help.
Happy to help. Here is another program I film for your enjoyment. This is with my neighbor and friend across the road from me. th-cam.com/video/OP4a6vxIfAs/w-d-xo.html
Makes since ..a squirrel is a rat with bushy tail. And if you study deer...they are an overgrown rat
Deer are more of the Goat family.
😂😂😂
Thank you for confirming! I have a lot of those pests in the back yard. God bless!
Yes, it really works and very well I may add.
I'll have to try that!
25cal Benjamin Marauder has been doing an outstanding job on squirrels since 2014.
I don't have a farm like you, just a house with a large fenced in yard. They were entering my home and digging up my wife's garden.
I don't have the time to sit and target shoot varmits. Ammo is so very expensive these days.
I prefer my FX Streamline in 22 caliber. I've smoke squirells, groundhogs and racoons at 40 yards easy
Now you can offer them corn bread with an occasional lead dessert
Many communities have laws against firearm use in neighborhoods....
I'm going to try mixing B Soda with peanut butter, make little balls with it, coat it in flour so dirt doesn't stick to it and drop them down the holes. If this works I'm going to come back here and report on it. First I'm going to test that the peanut butter doesn't deactivate the B Soda. I'll mix it up, wait 24 hours, and drop bits of it into vinegar and see if it foams up.
Go for it.
I hate having to resort to poisons but it's cool to know I can use something that wouldn't hurt a dog. Thanks.
Go for it.
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 Gopher it?😂
Kudos to you for figuring that out. May be make some dish that rodents love and load it up with Baking Soda.
That's the plan!
You cannot let the baking soda get wet. However you can blend it with peanut butter. The peanut oil will allow you to shape the compound into balls that you can dispense inside of peanut shells.
Nope, you cannot.
The squirrels in my yard will not eat a 50/50 corn meal baking soda mix.
Try cake mix
I might have to give that a shot. I tried grinding unsalted peanuts in my food processor into (almost) a powder. I did see several interested in it today, kinda picking at it and testing it.
I mixed peanut butter with baking soda and cornmeal sprinkled with birdseed..🤞🏼🤞🏼
I’ve trapped and relocated almost 40 tree rats but there’s just 1 that will NOT go in the trap…
Great tip. Thanks for sharing.
Shoot it.
I relocate mine in the ground.
Thanks much for trapping and relocating. I'm so much for that, I can't even watch him kill this squirrel. I mean the little guy is already caught and caged and the last thing I need is to watch an animal that is going to suffer terribly then die just to prove a point. I guess I just don't get how someone can be so nonchalant about unnecessary killing.
@@jackm6307 you haven’t had the damage they can do. When they tear up your home you may feel differently.

Thank you so much for the information. I had a flying squirrel chewing at night and day by the eves on my house. So loud it woke me up . I did not know what to do. Never had this problem in 50 years. So i put the mixture by all the down spouts. It worked it is gone. I got a good night sleep! Thank you. ❤
I had that problem two years ago with rodents under the house. Not until this mix did it go away and stay away.
Thank you. Very educational. I’ve been trying to get rid of squirrels in my yard due to them digging in my flowers and several other things. We also have moles that make our yard look like a minefield. And tunnels everywhere. I have been trapping squirrels and relocating but they don’t seem to be interested that anymore.

I tried a 50/50 mix of cornbread with baking soda but the grey squirrels wont touch it. Ive seen them walk up to it, sniff it and walk away.
Should I add sugar or peanut butter to the mix? Im thinking peanut butter due to attracting smell of the peanut butter.
Suggestions?
Only one way to find out. Baking soda and store brand PB are relatively cheap so what stops you from trying?
I did it with WHITE FLOUR... BAKING SODA and WHITE SUGAR.
I also added peanut butter to attract them real good. It worked
No more cute little furry demons eating my balcony chairs 😊❤
Nice.
We pest controllers in the UK have known that for years. A mixture of flavour ( nuts for squirrels or chicken for rats) mixed with plaster of Paris solidifies in their stomachs after they drink. The problem is, it is not humane and takes too long. We are working on sterilisation to rid our country of grey squirrels through special feeding hoppers that only the heavier greys can get to but the smaller red squirrels cannot. The aim is after 10 years or so there won’t be any breading of them left. Greys being an invasive species here in the UK. They could try the same method to stop pythons breading in the Everglades.
Thanks for the tips. Cheers.
We haven’t gotten to enjoy any fox squirrels, for decades. The cat squirrels moved in and I guess ran them off. Heck, they may have died. Those cat squirrels are a complete nuisance
Thank you for the great video advice. A friend used this mixture and the squirrels disappeared.
I used this on mice and it is AMAZING! Im now going to use it on the squirrels out in pasture as they are so dangerous to horse and rider with their holes! THANK YOU
I never thought about that aspect.
Exactly what I was looking for. I have seen this mentioned elsewhere however it wasn't tested nor verification that no harm to other animals other than rodents was verified.
I have been using it for a year and a half. No other critter has been harmed (that I know of) All my pets and livestock are still here. AND I still see the beneficial wildlife meandering about.
@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 thank you I appreciate your input. This seemed like the best route for me, I have quite a few beneficial critters that I want to protect.
The ground squirrels have gotten smart. Won't go in an $80 trap. I've tried peanuts, oats, dog food, ettc
O dear.
If they have become wary of traps, try setting a dish of the baking soda mixture out WITHOUT putting it in a trap. Yeah, you probably won't be able to find the bodies later to dispose of them. But they won't be scared away from the bait by a trap either, and most important.....they'll be GONE.
I do that. When I find the body I throw it for the crows to eat.
Same here. Squirrels are getting smarter. Won't go in my trap
I bought two 30 dollar traps and was using poison. They didn't use it till I poured organic peanut butter oil on it. Now, I'm going to use this method and see if I can't bury me some holes around me. Cave in some tunnels and level off my usable property.
Thanks I will try this. So far I've tried mechanisms that shine a light on motion or make a noise, I've tried spikes across the fence, fake owls some that have moving heads, netting and more. I haven't got a peach off of any of my trees or an apricot the entire many years that I've had the trees because the squirrels devastate them. Desperate in Texas
It still has epic results for me. th-cam.com/video/vSIh8jQmz3c/w-d-xo.html
Great video, will give this a try, a neighbour at the back of us keeps feeding grey squirrels and pigeons, the squirrels then come into our garden dig at our lawn to burry the nuts and also dig at our planters looking for bulbs and they have been crawling all over the outside of our house. Have to make sure we keep windows closed. Keep fearing they will get into our loft and cause damage. Such a pest (the neighbours) and the squirrels
Good luck! th-cam.com/video/FycSoPkT36A/w-d-xo.html
Thanks!
Welcome! Well hum dinger, You are the very FIRST person whom gave me money in the way. Thanks a bunch.
Great info! Do you or any of your viewers have suggestion on a bait station to keep the ingredients out of weather and dry? Will moisture/rain/snow reduce effectiveness once wet? Just found your channel, will be searching your content for more, thanks!
Used cleaned cottage cheese container with the lid on and a two inch hole cut into the side.
Do not let baking soda get wet. Cover your bait station.
Squirrels are rats with bushy tails.
Yup, I agree.
Tree rats.
Thank you for sharing this concoction. We have a horrible chipmunk problem here in the Pacific NW. They literally ate my entire strawberry patch of green berries within 2 nights. They eat all my leafy garden veggies and dig in my flower pots. Not to mention they made a nest in my air filter compartment in my vehicle. 😮 I am totally going to put some of this out tomorrow!
Oh no! th-cam.com/video/vSIh8jQmz3c/w-d-xo.html
We haven't seen a fox around here for along time, they kept the squirrels in check. Now we have squirrels run a muck all over! Thanks for the video!
That is awesome! Good thing this stuff will not harm fox or owl or ..... th-cam.com/video/FycSoPkT36A/w-d-xo.html
I was skeptical, but this was cheap so I gave it a try. I had squirrels getting into my soffits. I patched up the holes but they were scratching on the side of the house at 5 in the morning trying to get back in. I live in a heavily forested area. Since I put it out I have not seen a single squirrel. I think 50/50 mix was a little too heavy of the baking soda. I mixed it by eye so it still looked yellow. I used Jiffy corn muffin mix, regular, not the honey stuff.
Excellent!
So I have a camper. Can you put a bowl of this out before you store it for the winter and will it last for rodents without getting moldy? Great video by the way.
Yes you can! I have them in my RVs.
Thank you for this valuable information. The squirrels here like to eat the chickens' food and since I had an "egg layer mix" out, they multiplied bigly this spring. The resident mice completely trashed the lawnmower shed over the winter. Someone told me that rodents don't like moth balls, so that is (apparently) keeping them out of the shed at this time, but I was still collecting 2-3 mice (tiny ones) a day... I'm sure this will cut down on that number. Will put it in small containers around the outside of the chicken fence. :) Thanks again!
Best of luck.
I have never heard of using baking soda as being used for rodent control. Thanks for sharing. Good luck with dealing with tree huggers and animal rights peeps.
Our municipality has a vector control office of which we pay taxes to for them to kill pests. Also, there are many many companies whom make a living killing pests.
Thanks handsome,much appreciated ❤
You are so welcome th-cam.com/video/FycSoPkT36A/w-d-xo.html

Do you simply mix equal parts dry baking soda and dry cornbread together and shake it up and leave out as a powder or do you add any kind of liquid, etc. Just curious on the preparation process.
Serve dry. Best if baking soda is fresh though. th-cam.com/video/JCqFKu7Fz-E/w-d-xo.html
I have Douglas squirrels that are really cute but very aggressive. They are psychos and scare off big grey squirrels. The pair that has claimed our deck I call 'Mr. and Mrs. Disney' because they are surreally adorable.
Nice.
My fruit trees have been striped by squirrels during the day and rats in the night. By the beginning of July everything is gone. Rat traps worked well but I had undesirable results with birds and lizards. I can’t wait to try the cornbread mix. I have armadillos but I haven’t determined them to do any harm. They root but it seems for bugs not vegetable roots.
Sorry to hear that. Stay tuned, I am getting many viewers telling me of the problem with these critters eating their fruit and nuts. I have come up with a simple inexpensive idea which may help you all and your problem.
QUESTION👋: FOR LONG TERM out of town protection - IF I am not worried about PETS at all - WHAT other poisons work against SQUIRRELS that are not affected by humidity... I need something I can lay out for a long time....⁉
Sorry, cannot help you out with that one.
Did we see a dead squirrell? As far as "mean and cruel" is concerned you might witness a squirrel eating songbirds eggs and hatchlings as I have. P.S. Are cardinals a songbird? Bug you get the point.
Yes, the squirrel was killed dead by the backing soda. These beasts are omnivores and destructive on livestock and pets and property.
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319Glad you cleared that up. Because of the lighting. I couldn't tell from the video what was in the cage and you never said what animal it was. (Now I just watched the video again and realized that I was too focused on the goats.)
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 Indeed they are destructive!! AND...they are consistent, persistent, determined, annoying, bold and again...destructive!!

Six hours! That's just cruel. Surely there's something more humane.
Please GOOGEL "Squirrels eating birds" and watch. H O R R I F I C. These creeps are BEASTS. I will NEVER treat them kindly again. Not on my farm when I'm raising baby ducks, chicks, turkeys and gosslings.
@@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319 Squirrels are pests and need to be dealt with accordingly when needed, but to say they are "beasts" in a derogatory sense because they eat birds is just like saying a snake is terrible for eating a rodent. It does what it does. Besides, you stated in another video that you welcome animals that will eat your chicken eggs so you make sure they can't get to them. You sounds like a fake environmentalist (aka religious environmentalist) sometimes. Don't let your feels get in the way of your environmentalism, it degrades your credibility.
We live in the country in Northern California. We have a huge squirrel problem. I can’t use poisons due to the wildlife that we have in and around the property. This works. For anybody reading this please know that this system works. One of the dogs ate this mixture, threw up, and doesn’t touch it now. She learned.
Thanks for making this video. God bless.
Yup, cuz most all creatures can throw up. Rodents cannot. Which is why they die and other critters dont.
