Industry studies show that Squirrels are listed as the #1 reason for people leaving the bird feeding category. Squirrels dominate feeders, create a mess and eat much of the fruit and nut bird seed. After much development and product testing, we created Wild Delight Sizzle N' Heat, a squirrel-deterrent product. While this outdoor bird food is not a squirrel-proof product, our studies showed it to be a very effective squirrel deterrent. While squirrels may still visit and feed at feeders, once they get a taste of the hot wild bird seed for outside feeders, most will look for other sources of food. As with any Wild Delight product, ensuring the best bird feeding experience is the #1 goal. So Sizzle N' Heat is filled with the same highly desired ingredients birds love, with none of the filler ingredients. This wild bird food is great to attract wild birds and keep squirrels away for bird watching right in your backyard. Attract the extraordinary with Wild Delight
