Skip it if
Squirrels can jump onto your feeder from a tree, fence or roof: the maker says to mount it at least 6 feet up and 8 to 10 feet from any launch point, and no baffle helps if you can't.

Manufacturer's claims (from Garbuildman)Show
- Bigger and Wider Design: 19” diameter design makes this squirrel stopper more effective than other sizes. Larger sizes have greater jitter, no matter if rodents fly up or climb up, they will not be able to stand stably on the baffle. Anything smaller than 19 inches cannot step over this baffle easily, which means that the foods in your bird feeder can be specially provided to feathery friends instead of greedy squirrels or raccoons.
- Reliable and Practical: Made of high-quality PP material and covered with glossy black color, this baffle guard is uneasy to crack and durable. It can be gentle and unobtrusive in your outside areas, wear-proof and weather fastness, no fear of rain or sunburn. Moreover, it effectively stops the pesky squirrels stealing precious bird food which means that you can save lots of money in wasted bird food eaten by squirrel robbers.
- Quick and Easy to Clean: This squirrel protector has a so slippery surface that the squirrels have no grip to climb on the bird feeder. What’s more, the dirt on the baffle that placed in outdoors for a long time can be easily cleaned because of the glazed surface. Unlike other metal baffles, our PP baffle won’t rust with a terrible look in your garden. We are committed to providing you with an elegant and neat gardens, patios, porches or yards.
- Simple Installation: Firstly, tighten four screws to secure the buckle on the rod (fits for any 2/3 inch to 1-3/8 inches pole or shepherd hook). Make sure the buckle is placed high enough (at least 6 feet from the ground). Secondly, wrap the baffle around the buckle and press down the buttons on the side of the baffle to finish the assembly. Finally, ensure the squirrel deflector is 8 to 10 feet from the trunk of the tree (or any other platform).
- Ideal Gift & Tips: This baffle for pole can be a superior and pragmatic tool in your outside areas, or a special, decent festival gift for wild bird watchers and bird lovers.
