Eric4home said:How do you put the jelly out? I have a bunch in the cupboard I could use, and we do see BOs in the area, and after the leaves fall, occasionally find one of their nest.


I have platform feeders so I put small cat food dishes filled with jelly out on them. This show my very first set up. The small metal dish has jelly in it. The large plastic dish held orange halves. I also used the special jelly feeders. But I live where there are lots of raccoons and other critters so finally opted for the pole mounted platform feeders. That way I can leave the dishes out all the time. I have 2 of these. Both have raccoon baffles on them. Sometimes the deer will push out the screen bottoms if I have seed or corn on the platforms.
