Could we spray this on outdoor hanging light cords to prevent squirrels from gnawing the cords in half?

I would not recommend this product as a deterrent of squirrels on any surface. I used it on wood with very liberal applications and it didn't phase the squirrels in the least.

I can't answer that Karen. I use it for squirrels and it worked until it rained and I had to reapply.

It is NOT resistant to squirrels... As my "hole-y" lid will attest. Keep it indoors, or spray it with a deterrent.

Yes, I'm pretty sure that this would kill a squirrel. It's not made for squirrels, but it is poison designed to kill small mammals. I don't know how your attic is setup, with insulation or walking spaces. It is designed to attract critters, so you would probably be safe just to toss it up there and hope for the best, or worst.... Depending on your point of view.

Sorry, but I don't have the answer to your question ... just a guess. How about spraying with Static Guard?

Would this be good to use along with the wire on top of fences to keep destructive rude neighbors cats out?

Hi, Although I have thought about plugging mine into an extension cord an d leaving it on I have not tried it yet. If I leave it charge for 24 hours mine usually lasts almost a week. The feeder went down in price since December so I bought another one so I always have one handy for those pesky squirrels I am trying to catch a possum on it at night. Sorry I could not be of more help. I am so disapointed to hear all the negative reviews. I love my feeder, the squirrels get right off using the remote from inside my house (about 40-50 feet away. The birds (all kinds of birds fight over the feeders! I am so pleased with this product!!Jo Ventura Hi, Although I have thought about plugging mine into an extension cord an d leaving it on I have not tried it yet.

This thing works great! I placed it outdoor in my backyard, aimed at a couple of very destructive squirrels. I used peanut butter as bait and killed a total 5. Now my backyard is frequented with new arriving squirrels again. I will let them live and play, but will bring back the trap again if they started misbehaving.

I use the product to trap insects crawling up my fruit trees. First, you wrap the tree trunk with the tape and then smear on the goop. Judging from how hard it is to remove from your hands, a squirrel should be at least highly annoyed.

I think you're on the right track but it sure sounds like a lot of work to keep those little buggers away from the new sprouts. Regarding the wet ground and discharge, I'm not sure. My installation with two wire mesh screens on top of the bird feeder keeps the squirrels off and I notice that when the snow covers the screens, the batteries seem to keep a charge going, although they may be running down a little faster.Wish I could be of more help.

i would put a hook that you could hang it on outside so the nozzle points down so water and moisture can't collect on the metal contacts and i would use some electrical lubricant to keep them from corroding.

Works well on a vertical pole. It hangs loosely and the squirrels slide off if they manage to jump on it. It solved my squirrel and raccoon problem. Stabilization may be a problem horizonally.

You could probably make a standoff out of wood and run the wire through some sort of conduit down the concrete wall into the standoff. They are designed to completely conceal the wire to avoid tampering.

Hi, we have tried it for a few weeks. it hasnt been very effective for squirrels in the attic. We haven't yet called the customer service to see if there are any adjustments possible. If I hadn't thrown away the box, I would have returned it.

I tested it on a squirrel. It worked every time. You can use an electrical continuity tester. I would not touch the wires when they are charged.

NO problem. suggest that you waterproof where wires attach either with electrical tape/silicon spray dressing. Check other answers to this issue. GOOD LUCK!

Yes, if using outdoor, please use an extension cord with GFCI circuit protector, which is available in your local Home Depot or Ace Hardware Store.
