Built to last through warm weather and heavy bird traffic, each 1 lb 3 oz cake reduces refills and keeps feed targeted to wild birds. The recipe comes from a family-run American maker with decades of backyard-feeding experience; handle with care because the capsaicin makes it irritating to human skin and eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does Flaming Hot Feast keep squirrels away while still feeding birds?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe formula uses capsaicin (hot pepper oil) which birds tolerate but many mammals find unpleasant.
