Woman stops squirrel thief by using Vaseline on bird feeder: 'They're so greedy'

A grandmother in the U.K. has found a slick way to handle thieving squirrels.

The gray squirrel in question had been climbing up the feeder Stranix keeps in her garden on a "daily basis" before the grandmother of six decided to try the petroleum jelly product as a deterrent. Now the persistent, bushy-tailed rodent tries to stop by for a snack but slides right back down the pole before it can reach the feeder.
