  Cole's Wild Bird Products

about us

  • Cole's Wild Bird Products Company is a true "mom and pop" success story. Back in the early 1980's, Richard and Nancy Cole started feeding experiments in their backyard because the "birdseed in a bucket" they bought at the grocery store wasn't attracting the beautiful songbirds they wanted to see. They devoted hours upon hours researching the dietary needs of their feathered friends to find just the right combination of ingredients that would bring the most birds to their bird feeders. Neighbors started noticing the increased bird activity in the Cole's yard and came knocking for the secret. Soon the first dreams of an entrepreneurial business were born.
  • They would mix and bag their own seed in the garage at night after work and deliver it to neighbors and local stores on the weekends. A few years later Richard's daughter, Elaine, joined the family enterprise.

The birds enjoy the ease of not having to hull the seeds and my yard enjoys less mess. The important part of this product is that the squirrels quickly learn that visiting the bird feeder to eat does not happily end.

I have been using this seed for two years. I no longer have any squirrels at my feeder. Previously I would have anywhere from one to four squirrels constantly on and around my bird feeder, which is hanging from a beam on my pergola on the back porch. Even though it had a plastic dome over the feeder, they would slide down the cable, hold on with their back legs, stretch out and slide off the dome, making a grab for the bird rest on the way down. OR they would jump from the wall of my house (yes, squirrels can climb bricks) and jump into the feeder, knocking seed to the ground and then feasting. Putting this seed in IMMEDIATELY stopped the squirrels. None. Gone. It is my assumption they can smell the hot sauce and just don't bother. They do not try to get at it, therefore I have never seen a squirrel spend a day trying to get at the seed, finally knock some to the ground and then eat it, discovers it has hot sauce on it and then claws their face off trying to get it off. (Whoever posted that bit of information must be furthering an urban myth for some reason). Case in point. Because this seed is rather expensive I decided to try out some cost cutting. I fill my feeder with half regular seed and then topped it off with Hot Meats. My thinking was that by the time the squirrels discover there is regular seed in the feeder I would be down to the Hot Meats and they would stay away. WRONG. They knew within 30 minutes that regular seed was in the feeder and they were back to sliding, stretching, grabbing, and jumping. I emptied the feeder put in all Hot Meats and I have never had another squirrel. Ever. Just birds.

I see spirals in their eyes when I fill up the feeder. Generally, squirrels shy away, however, you can never say never when it comes to persistent squirrels. There have been times when I see a squirrel indulging. This bird food is expensive, however, you won’t go through it as fast as it slows down chipmunks and squirrels. Sometimes, I mix other food with it.

I like the pre-shelled feed for less mess and the added heat repels most squirrels.

I just ordered this for the second time and it is ok. It is better than the other hot "treats" for wild birds, but I have at least two squirrels who think it is salsa. It is amazing to me because it burns my hands so much if they come into contact with it that I have to wash and wash, and now I have a pair of gloves that I use when I put it in the bird feeder that is also, just let the record show, supposed to be inaccessible to squirrels. They long ago figured out how lean out from the pole, grab the top of the feeder and eat. But, I honestly thought this Hot Meats would be too hot for them. I'm guessing nothing is too hot. The first squirrel that I saw eating it, hopped down and rubbed his/her face on the ground back and forth, so I had hope, but since catching at least two squirrels at it and scaring away the birds, I'm going back to the slingshot approach.
