Questions
Are these raw (not roasted) peanuts? Anyone have success using them as seed peanuts to grow plants?
- These are raw peanuts. The squirrels like to plant them in my containers and they successfully grow and produce peanuts.

Are the Petco "Natural unsalted peanuts" safe for squirrels? The front of the bag says "for squirrels and outdoor wildlife". The back of the bag says "Warning : For feeding wild birds only ..." I have read that peanuts are poisonous for squirrels.
- Raw peanuts aren’t toxic as-is, but they have to stay completely dry or they create aflatoxin that is deadly. Whole corn and cracked corn is the same way. Also, peanuts should only be given to squirrels as a rare/occasional treat. Peanuts are like candy to them, and they will over-consume them and won’t forage enough to get a balanced diet, and they end up with Metabolic Bone Disease, which is always fatal. It’s like asking a child if they want a candy bar or broccoli.

are the natural peanuts for squirrels roasted
- Raw peanuts themselves are not poisonous to squirrels. Only if they contain a fungus that is bad for them.
