This gives me a neat bunch of kindling that's easy to handle.

I solved that problem by putting an electric fence around the bird feeder and connecting it to the electric fence that surrounds my horse pasture. Most of the time I don't even need to keep it hooked up because once the raccoons have been shocked, they don't go near it again. It works very well.
