I found it unbelievable the number of posters there that actually thought the squirrel was harmed by this!

We (wife & I) played with one of the full feeders with spins when we were looking to squirrel proof our bird feeding stations.
There's a nature/birder shop in old town Spring that has a video by the company they play for it. Funny - they add sound effects of "Uh Oh!" and "Wheeee!" to the tree rats flying off the thing.
But the $100+ price tag was a bit high.
These they show here can be found for $30-40 and used by any feeder, so look better.
I may just order one for the photo ops
