Works Almost 100%!!! How to Prevent Squirrels From Messing up Your Potted Plants

[@Aurora-zy6lq]

I love squirrels too, they are cute, but they uprooted my potted geraniums, I was so mad. So now I have a Calamansi (Calamondin) it’s a citrus plant, in a pot which I placed outside for the late summer/ fall sunlight. And the squirrels 🐿️ started messing with it too. So I had to put them back inside.

@@Aurora-zy6lq I totally hear you! I get annoyed when they🐿 mess with my plants but I can't stop loving them! Have you tried the foil strategy? I know it doesn't look pretty but it worked for me for squirrels😊 (Didn't work for raccoons🦝😅).

[@swetalahiri9491]

Very nice. You are very kind to the squirrels too.

[@sublimesquirrel]

@@swetalahiri9491 Thank you for your kind words! I just love squirrels so much🥰🐿💕

An added bonus is that the aliens won't be able to use mind control on your plants now.

Just discovered this. I love plants . The squirrels keep making a hole in the mesh and coming in to feast on my plants, turn over my table, and pee on my chair. While I think squirrels are cute, they need to leave my plants alone. I say they, but I think it is the same squirrel coming in since he was a baby. ,,,,,sooooo cutee. But I will not be a pushover. I will give this a try.

@@FAYANDERSON-v5s Thank you for watching and leaving your comment!❤️ I love plants too so I can understand how you feel! I found that seeing the same squirrel for years is quite an experience - I stop seeing most squirrels. I hope this trick works for you and you have a great time with them🤗🐿💓 For what it’s worth, this trick worked for me - at least until the raccoons showed up!🦝🦝😅😂

I'm sorry to change the subject from squirrels but, you are so cute. Great job.

What a great idea and it worked. We have little chipmunks everywhere here in the desert but last week we actually had a real squirrel in our yard My husband took a picture of him stealing our cats food. Don't know what kind but he was gray in color and about the size of yours. I hope he sticks around. Love your videos TFS

[@sublimesquirrel]

The Crafter Nook With Connie Hi Connie! Sorry I couldn't get back to you sooner! Thanks!! I'm so glad that it's working! And yay! You have a squirrel now!🙌😍I'm so happy for you🤗 That must be a gray squirrel. I'm pretty sure that they'll come back😉 If you give them nuts, they'll definitely come back!😆😉🥜🐿💗 TFW💞

[@lacieglaab5899]

Thank you for sharing this video. I've had a cute little squirrel digging into my cucumber plant every day 🤦. Luckily they haven't gotten all the way to the roots YET, but they keep getting closer every day. I'm going to give this a try ASAP! Thanks again 🙏🥰

[@sublimesquirrel]

I hear you!😂🤗 Squirrels are super cute and I love them🐿 but they are uncontrollable😅 And they can dig surprisingly deep😆 I hope it’ll work!🤞🤞♥️

[@千寿江上島]

いろいろ対策されてるんですね〜😂英語わかんないけど、見てて楽しかったです🎶🐿リスちゃん、すぐに見分けられて名前呼んでますね❤それぞれ個性があるんでしょうね😊

[@sublimesquirrel]

😂そんな時期もありました😊 いまは鉢植え置いてないんです😅結局はあらいぐまに荒らされちゃって🦝🦝💦😭🤣 そういってもらえてよかったです！😃💖✨どうしても時間の関係上、英語のみになってしまうので。。(❁ᴗ͈ˬᴗ͈)" そうなんですよ～！💖 個性もそれぞれだしお顔など見た目もみんな違うんです~！🐿🥰💓

[@Akera541]

Little Summer won't be messing with those plants anytime soon ^^ 😀 🐿

[@sublimesquirrel]

😄 It worked well until raccoons started visiting me!😂 Evidently it doesn't work for raccoons!😅🦝🦝🦝🦝

[@cdk1473]

Omg I few months ago. The squirrels would make holes in my trash can tops. I put silver duck tape on my trash can tops and they stopped. Thank you for this video. I should have thought about the foil.

[@sublimesquirrel]

Oh dear...😅 I thought that was a raccoon’s job!🦝😂 Have you tried foil? I would love to know how it goes!🐿

[@Fatimasroots]

It is hilarious all the things we do like wrapping chicken wire or foil around out pots just to keep squirrels away😂😂 I hate them but love them at the same time. This is my biggest challenge!

[@sublimesquirrel]

I hear you! They could frustrate me but they brighten my days way more than that💖🐿💖 I love them so much🥰 But the funny thing is that raccoons ended up destroying my pots😅🦝🦝🦝

[@kenhilliard6688]

I'm not the only one who talks to them....lolol

[@sublimesquirrel]

😂😆🙌🏻💖 Go team squirrel!🥜🐿😉

[@HeiderosesPhotograph]

good idea....and this little critter is so cute. thanks for your video :)

[@sublimesquirrel]

Thanks!😉 Eventually, raccoons destroyed my pots🤦‍♀️😂 but it worked for squirrels🐿🤗

[@russellperry6155]

I think feeding is no deterrent, it just encourages them

[@milamyronie1795]

You are absolutely right. They will do more and more damage in your property that way.

[@aldastroud9671]

And they know you also, she can't stop feeding them, no foil in the world will save the plants 😂

[@David-sw3on]

What a Great Idea! And I just love squirrels...my mother says that she detests them, for they always seem to uproot her plants. But Man!- they are too damn cute lol. We have mostly Black Squirrels where I live in Southern Ont Canada. And besides the many blacks, I get the odd Grey Squirrel in my back yard. - I'm also happy to say that we have alot more chipmunks this spring than last year!(even though I already found a dead adult while mowing; I believe it's the damn cats {but sadly- that's their job as well.})Thanks so much for your adorable vid.👍😉🇨🇦

[@sublimesquirrel]

Thanks! I hope it works out for your mother🤞🏻🤞🏻 Aww, what a lovely comment! It warms my heart to meet another squirrel lover and to know that we share the same admiration for these furry creatures. I can't help but adore squirrels no matter how mischievous they can be, they always bring a smile to my face! 😂 I'm totally with you on the predators. As much as it saddens me to think of squirrels getting hurt, I understand that it's a natural part of the circle of life🌿🌰🐿 It's a bittersweet reality, but one that we must accept. Lastly, how wonderful it is that you get to enjoy a variety of squirrels! How delightful that must be! 💖

[@brianpendez5340]

If you are frustrated with squirrels, keep in mind they help plant trees in nature which helps us continue to have oxygen to breathe. I have an oak growing in my backyard that I decided to let grow as I need some shade. While I'm sitting back and watching it grow, it's amazing to know that little squirrel bouncing around digging in my pots planted that. Here I am running around, researching how to grow trees and this guys just pops one out like its nothing.

[@edwardlok2786]

👍but it’s a pain having to wrap pots like this!

[@sublimesquirrel]

🫶🏻I hear you! But more than that, you can’t prevent raccoons🦝🦝🦝 from it😅😂

サマーちゃんの仕業でしたか。リスは木の実を食べるのも好きですが、掘って埋めるのも大好きですので。土だけのダミーの鉢を用意すればいいかもしれません。 私はクルミを落ち葉や草を被せて隠します。最初は鳥たちに取られるので、やってたのですが、これがエゾリスにも好評でした。 宝探しや横取りの要素が含まれてますので、大喜びで、私の隠したクルミを探し出して、他の場所に埋めます。リスのハツラツとした動きは見てて分かります。

[@sublimesquirrel]

ガデムモーター ガデムモーターさんお久しぶりです！ お返事遅くなっちゃいましてごめんなさい💦💦 そうなんです。。 サマー🐿派手にやってくれました😅😂 前に埋めたものがちゃんとあるか 確認でほりほりしたりもするので 一時大変でした(^^; それで 土だけのを用意したりもしてみたのですが 植物への被害はおさまらなかったんです (ダミーもちゃんと使ってくれたんだけどね 笑) かわいーー！！(≧∇≦) りすも宝探しが好きなんですね！ 鳥も頭いいのに 落ち葉の下のナッツには気づかないのかしらね。不思議～！(✩´艸`)

[@myhusbandsrib]

how do u do this in a raised bed?

[@ladyfame1430]

Thats exactly how my potted plants look. And they have killed them all because they up root them so much that the plant doesn’t stand a chance. Ugh……they drive me nuts! I have a whole yard for them. Why do they love the flowers? 😢
