Mikey, my wife and I use to put unsalted dry roasted peanuts, in the shell, out for the squirrels when we lived in the mobile home park. We not only had squirrels but also Blue Jays, Cardinals, Woodpeckers, and other little birds come down to eat. We use to have to crush a few for the little birds. It was hilarious watching the woodpecker come down to get one. Oh, the squirrels, a few would actually come up and take the peanut from us.
