- Effective double defense: Reduces the risk of squirrels climbing up bird feeders or bird houses. The smooth surface prevents grip on the squirrel cone under the feeder, and the large squirrel blocker helps prevent lift-off and jumping onto the feeder, ensuring more seed goes to feathered friends. - Durable and robust: Made from rust-resistant and chew-resistant plastic to perform in harsh weather. Easy to clean and not prone to cracking. The smooth surface resists rust or corrosion better than metal. - Easy installation and disassembly: Includes all required hardware; no additional tools needed and only a few simple steps to install. The wraparound squirrel guard is removable and can be quickly connected to existing bird feeders or shepherd hooks. - Creative rotating design: The baffle rotates and swings to deter climbers. When animals try to climb, they are rotated off; the barrier’s motion makes it hard for squirrels to stay on, and the swinging action discourages flying squirrels as well. - Compatibility and size: One-size fits most standard pole and hanging bird feeders; compatible with typical shepherd hooks and feeder configurations. - Use scenarios: - Install on a pole-mounted feeder to protect seed at the feeding port. - Attach to a hanging feeder on a porch or tree to deter climbers from above. - Use with a bird house on a shepherd hook to keep seed access for birds while reducing rodent access.
