 Great for squirrels, but not raccoons... April 12, 2008

I live in an area with a lot of old oak trees, so the community has a huge squirrel population. I have had problems with the little furry guys before - they can literally empty an entire feeder in an hour. I have purchased more expensive models before, but the squirrels figured out a way to hang upside down and raid the seed. This product works extremely well - it doesn't stop the squirrels from trying, but they get discouraged after awhile and jump down, leaving the seed alone.
One morning I woke up to find the shepherds hook I had the bird feeder hanging on bent to the ground and the feeder in the middle of the yard on its side. We had a windstorm during the night, so I figured it blew down. The next day I woke up to the same thing - and the feeder was completely empty.
In addition to a large squirrel colony, we also have a large raccoon colony. The raccoons managed to push the pole to the ground, remove the feeder from the hook, and placed the feeder on its side, so that the levers that close off the seed when the weight of a squirrel lands on it were not operational....and proceeded to empty the contents of the feeder.
I have been able to overcome this problem by greasing the pole the feeder is on....the raccoons can't get a grip on the pole to push it to the ground.
Overall, this product is great for what it sets out to do... keep squirrels from hogging all the seed....just watch out for raccoons!
Finally, a durable squirrel buster May 31, 2007

I finally found a bird feeder that is both squirrel 'proof' and durable meaning that it will last more than a season. I purchased two and, unlike other feeders I tried, this one withstood the assault of the most ambitious and agressive squirrels.
This is a must buy.

I got this for my birthday and I was a bit skeptical at first. It took about 8-9 days for the birds to figure out that the feeder was even here. Once the first bird came, it took only a few hours and we had a whole myriad of different birds. They love the feeder, so I love the feeder too. I just use a mixed blend bird seed and they seem to like it a lot. The feeder itself is easy to use. You just twist the top part off, fill it with seeds and hang it up. I would advice filling it outside because the seeds can spill out of the holes a little bit. As far as being squirrel proof, we have not had any squirrels bother it yet.

No Squirrels December 18, 2008

This is one of three effective feeders I use that deter squirrels. The birds love it and visit it often, but I no longer have problems with squirrels. The feeder is easy to fill and hang, even on a fairly high pole, since the 'hanging' wire is semi-rigid. With four ports from which the birds can get seeds it allows for plenty of aviary activity. While a climbing squirrel could cause seeds to fall to the ground even though they couldn't eat directly from the feeder, a baffle on my pole makes access doubly tough. It just isn't worth it to them, I guess, since they no longer come around. The birds themselves drop plenty of seeds on the ground and it's the rare squirrel who tries to climb the pole anymore. I like this feeder and would buy another if needed. Of all my feeders, this is the birds' favorite.
