Hot Pepper Superior Seed Cake (1411)

The IDEAL Hot Pepper Superior Seed Cake (1411) is a high-performance feeding solution designed for birders who struggle with persistent squirrel or raccoon raids at their feeders. By combining a premium blend of sunflower seeds, nuts, and grains with a non-toxic but potent hot pepper infusion, this cake provides a delicious feast for songbirds that is completely unappealing to mammalian pests. Because birds lack the sensory receptors to detect the "heat" of capsaicin, they can safely enjoy this nutrient-dense meal, while squirrels and raccoons will learn quickly to avoid your feeders. This 2lb compressed cake offers a long-lasting, low-mess feeding experience that is perfect for year-round backyard protection.
