Yes, cayenne pepper can deter squirrels from digging in your flower pots. The strong scent and spicy taste are unappealing to them. Sprinkling cayenne pepper around the area can create an unpleasant environment, encouraging squirrels to stay away. However, it may need to be reapplied after rain or watering to maintain its effectiveness.
