Squirrel-Be-Gone

Here’s another variation on a squirrel-proof bird feeder that closes off access to the seed because of a squirrel’s weight.

This bird feeder has a plastic inner tube with seed and feeding ports, and a metal outer cage, decorated with rustic leaves. The leaves are strategically placed so that when a squirrel puts his weight on the outer cage, it drops down and the leaves block the feeding ports.

It has six feeder ports and holds 3.4 pounds of seed.

While the Squirrel Be Gone may be more aesthetically pleasing than the other bird feeders, it doesn’t seem to be as sturdy. The springs aren’t rugged enough to stand the test of time, and the squirrels are able to chew through the plastic.

This isn’t the squirrel-proof bird feeder to give you the most bang for your buck. If you want a feeder you can hang and the squirrel’s weight closes off access to the seed, I recommend the Absolute Bird Feeder. Its all-metal construction means it will work for years to come.

But, nevertheless, here’s where you can find the Squirrel Be Gone online:

The Bird Shed

Note: if you want to check it outin person, Ace Hardware carries it.
