You will feel more connected with nature. But things do not stay that easy if there are squirrels in your locality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Squirrels can come in a group and empty your bird feeder in a few hours. It&rsquo;s super frustrating having to fill up the birdfeeder every day where birds are not getting the food you are offering them because of the squirrels. So, how can you stop this?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keeping safflower seeds in the bird feeder prevents squirrels from eating food from the bird feeder. Squirrels tend to avoid safflower seeds most of the time as those are bitter to the mammal tongue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like humans, squirrels also love or avoid some foods because of their taste. They simply dislike the safflower seeds for their bitter taste. Although they are hungry or in a survival condition, they can eat safflower seeds but not as comfortably as the sunflower seeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, birds do not have many issues with safflower seeds. However, they will usually choose sunflower seeds over safflower seeds. But that does not make the birds less attracted to your backyard. They will come to your backyard and eat the seeds naturally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you keep safflower seeds in the bird feeder, you will have to fill the bird feeder less often, as only birds will eat the seeds, not the squirrels. Interestingly, bully birds that make noise in your backyard will also be less attracted to your bird feeders. The actual reason is still unknown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, as you can see, keeping safflower seeds in your birdfeeder filters the species you want to feed. Why do birds not have any issue with the safflower seed? The reason can be that birds have less developed tasting organs and can not taste things like a mammal does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&rsquo;s why papers can be used as rodent repellents, but some birds love eating red hot chillis. There is some squirrel-resistant bird feeder on the market, but squirrels are very smart and acrobatic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you use safflower seeds in a squirrel-resistant bird feeder, you can make maximum protection against the squirrels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are different species of squirrels and different food habits, so do all types of squirrels dislike sunflower seeds? Follow the next points to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Flying_squirrels\"><\/span><strong>Flying squirrels:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Flying squirrels do not like safflower seeds. They like sunflower seeds and can eat seeds from even some squirrel-proof bird feeders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ground_squirrels\"><\/span><strong>Ground squirrels:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ground squirrels also not do not like safflower seeds. They tend to ignore the bird feeders with safflower seeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Red_squirrels\"><\/span><strong>Red squirrels:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to bitterness, red squirrels do not prefer safflower seeds. However, there are some stories about red squirrels eating safflowers seeds. So, it&rsquo;s not that super rare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_squirrels_like_golden_safflower_seeds\"><\/span><strong>Do squirrels like golden safflower seeds?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Squirrels do not like golden safflower seeds.<\/strong> Like other safflower seeds, golden safflower seeds are bitter, so squirrels do not like eating them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Squirrels have strong and developed sensory organs, which allow them to smell from very far and their taste buds are also very sensitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, when they eat something bitter, they will feel more bitterness in their mouth, which is very unpleasant. Golden safflower seeds are not much different from regular safflower seeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fact is, safflower seeds and sunflower seeds look similar. The birds and squirrels will not know the difference before they start eating. So, keeping safflower seeds in your bird feeder can solve your squirrel problem easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, safflower seeds are a bit more expensive than sunflower seeds, so you will have to spend a bit more while buying them. Although the squirrels will not mess with your bird feeder, it will help you save more money as you will have to fill it less often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&rsquo;s discuss from a different perspective if you have a pet squirrel. Can you feed the squirrel with safflower seeds? Is it non-toxic for them? Yes, safflower seeds are non-toxic to squirrels, but you will not be able to provide the seeds to your pet squirrels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that even sunflower seeds are also not a super healthy food for squirrels. They should not eat sunflower seeds regularly. Sunflower seeds have a high amount of phosphorus and significantly less calcium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When phosphorus is more than calcium in squirrel&rsquo;s food, the phosphorus binds with the calcium and leads to metabolic bone disease. Only 5-8 percent of squirrels&rsquo; diets should consist of seeds and food that have high phosphorus and low calcium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In comparison, sunflower seeds have more fat content than safflower seeds, so birds tend to choose sunflower seeds over safflower seeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why don&rsquo;t squirrels like safflower seeds?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Squirrels are not super picky eaters, but when it comes to the bitter taste, they try to avoid it.

Safflower seeds are bitter, and that&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s not on their food list. Many plants developed bitter leaves, seeds, and other parts to protect them from herbivores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_bitter_taste_is_a_sign_of_toxicity\"><\/span><strong>The bitter taste is a sign of toxicity:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the wild, animals tend to avoid things that taste bitter because bitterness is a common sign of toxicity.
