Squirrel Proof Bird Feeders  Squirrel Proof Bird Feeders are designed to prevent squirrels from jumping onto bird feeders and consuming your bird's supply of food and energy. Squirrels are nifty little animals who can jump far distances, scale up trees and across branches, hang upside down, and contort their bodies. Squirrels are not typically interested in thistle and nyjer seed, but they do love sunflower seeds. While squirrels are fun to watch and can cause quite a chuckle to onlookers, their pallet for sunflower seeds is an expensive concern. There are many designs of Squirrel proof feeders available. Wood is not an ideal material for any type of bird feeder when trying to deter squirrels. Squirrels can chew through wood to get to the seeds in a short period of time, destroying the bird feeder. Squirrel proof bird feeders are typically constructed using metals and tough plastics. Caged birdfeeders are an option, with openings large enough for birds to fly in, but too small for squirrels. The birds can fly into the cages and eat from the seed filled tubes, and then fly out when finished. These domed cage feeders work quite well in most environments.  For the craftiest of squirrels, only a spring loaded mechanism will do. Choose either a feeder that is activated by the squirrels weight to lock the seed openings shut when the squirrel arrives, or some of the more fun designs, including Droll Yankees' Yankee Flipper and Yankee Tipper. Both styles will flip and tip the squirrels off of the birdfeeder as soon as activated by the squirrel's weight. The Award Winning Squirrel Buster Plus is long enough to prevent a squirrel from being able to cling to the top of the birdfeeder and stretch to the seed openings, promising a truly squirrel proof performance.Squirrel proof bird feeders are not designed to hurt squirrels, but rather to deter them and keep birds safe. Don't be surprised if you witness the same squirrel make numerous attempts to overcome his obstacles. Squirrels are persistent and will provide quite a bit of enjoyment to the observer as they repeatedly attempt to try these squirrel proof feeders at a new angle. You can be assured that when you choose a squirrel proof bird feeder, the squirrels will not overcome! |
