I have read that squirrels don't dig in an area where the gardener has placed orange/citrus peels, coffe grounds and/or human hair. Also, squirrels avoid areas frequented by dogs or cats.
So, here is my idea. Go ahead and place a layer of netting over the seed head. Then add another layer of netting with some citrus peels inside, or human hair, or cat/dog hair. Spread coffee grounds around the base of the plant.
Hope someone can test my idea to see if it will work.
