About this piece
Put an end to squirrel raids—no gimmicks required. This feeder Squirrel-Resistant Tube Bird Feeder uses smart, mechanical design instead of batteries, motors, or springs to keep seed where it belongs. An extra-long 5 x 18 inch long clear lexan tube makes it difficult for squirrels to reach the perches in the first place. If they do, four individually counterbalanced, weight-sensitive perches swing down under pressure, instantly cutting off access and gently dropping intruders to the ground.
Each perch is tuned to respond to weights of approximately 3 ounces or more, allowing small songbirds and most cardinals to feed comfortably while discouraging larger birds like grackles—and squirrels of all sizes. Adjust the perches by turning the dial on the bottom of the feeder. A durable green metal cap, base, and feeding ports add classic backyard color, while the clear tube keeps seed levels visible at a glance. Dual stainless steel clip locks secure the lid to help prevent squirrels from lifting it open. Comes ready to hang and is easy to fill and clean. Holds up to 7½ lbs. of seed. Measures 6 x 6 x 27 inches.
