Top 10 Squirrel Foods
for December 2023

Squirrels are one of nature's most versatile and abundant animals. They are common pests in gardens and bird feeders, but they play an important role in our ecosystem. They are especially drawn to nuts, acorns, and seeds. However, these foods are often lacking in nutritional value. The Volkman Small Animal Squirrel Gourmet Mix contains both nuts and seeds, providing a full spectrum of nutrients. The Squirrel Gourmet Mix contains whole grain wheat flour, peanuts, dried cranberries, and sunflower seeds. These ingredients are completely edible, and squirrels will eat on the spot due to its soft shell, rather than burying food. The squirrel mix is packaged in resealable plastic bags, making it a convenient, easy-to-pack treat.

Henry's Healthy Blocks for Squirrels, Flyers, Rats and Mice are formulated with the same high-quality ingredients as the Original Healthy Blocks for Birds, but with an added ingredient: pecans. The squirrels, rats, and mice love them, and the squirrels get to eat their blocks fresh out of the oven. The nuts make the blocks softer and easier to eat, and since they're baked fresh to order, they're always fresh. The blocks are also nutritionally complete, so they're easy for squirrels to digest. The blocks aren't as soft as the other blocks we tested, but they're not hard and crumbly, either. The squirrels and rats aren't as picky as the birds, so many of them ate the blocks without complaint. The squirrels, flyers, and rats all seemed content with the blocks, and we enjoyed watching them put up a good fight when we tried to steal their blocks. The blocks are slightly more expensive, but we think they're worth it. They're easy to prepare, and they make entertaining squirrel-watching a lot easier.
