How can I stop chipmunks from climbing pole of my bird feeder?

Grease it. About six inches of the pole and very thick.They hate the grease.





You can also put a hole in a lid from a five gallon bucket and slide it half way up the pole. They can't get around it.How can I stop chipmunks from climbing pole of my bird feeder?
Hehe,, did you try putting something slippery on the pole? or put a wide round flat sheet or plyboard on th pole, or put barb wires around it,, :)How can I stop chipmunks from climbing pole of my bird feeder?
grease the pole.... it works at Mardi Gras in New Orleans... to keep guys from climbing them......
Place approx. 6';-12'; of foil around base %26amp; tape @ seam. Their reflection from the foil should distract them.
Pellet Gun - Works well for squirrels also.
1)sit outside with a rifle


2)maybe oil it up


try them 2 and let me know something just shoot the chipmunks
Put a metal sheet over it...I'm assuming the pole is wood...
put honey on it
Wrap razor wire around the pole.
Put a good thick coat of grease, either mechanical or industrial, as long as it does not melt in the sun or weather proof that way they wont climb up or hurt the animal..also choose a color of grease that closest matches the pole.
Honestly, grease the bottom with crisco or something like that. If you want something more permanent, get some white lithium aerosol grease and spray it on the bottom. And if you think watching the birds feed from it is interesting, you havent seen anything yet. Its a riot.
put up a squirrel baffle, they sell them where you buy bird feeders and accessories
take the bird feeder down
My father has been battling the backyard squirrel for years . . . chicken wire, squirrel proof feeders, mounting the feeder in the open yard, away from the trees. The squirrels have beaten everything he has tried . . . and believe me, we have heard about it! :)
by rubbing pepper on the pole hot of course, this will not harm them but it will keep them off the pole OH use rubber while rubbing the pepper on so you do not get burn.
