Article: You can use either a feeder specifically made for squirrels or a bird feeder. To fill the feeder, take the top off of the feeder and fill the  container up to the top. You can buy feeders at garden or hardware stores. You can sometimes find squirrel food mixes at pet stores or outdoor stores.  The food will automatically dispense as squirrels eat it. Do not buy a “squirrel-proof” bird feeder. These feeders are designed to prevent squirrels from eating from them. Refill the feeders once a week or when they are empty. If you don't have a feeder, you can still attract squirrels by scattering food that they enjoy at the base of trees and shrubs. Feeding squirrels in this manner may encourage squirrels to nest in your yard. Stick these on high branches or near hollows where squirrels may like to nest. This will bring squirrels into your trees. You can buy corn cobs and nut balls at pet stores and garden supply stores. Water is just as important as food to squirrels. Make sure that the squirrels have a clean source of water somewhere in your yard. Natural sources of water are ideal, but you can also put out basins of water.  A bowl, basin, or bird bath is a cheap and easy way to give water, but you must change the water everyday. Fountains will provide a constant stream of fresh, running water. They may be more difficult and expensive to install, however.

What is a summary?
Fill a squirrel feeder with corn, sunflower seeds, and nuts. Scatter corn, nuts, or seeds at the bottom of trees. Place corn cobs and nut balls up in trees. Put out bowls and fountains to provide water.
