Though you can hang the Squirrel Buster from a hook on a porch eaves, the manufacturer, Brome, makes a Squirrel Buster Pole Adapter that enables you to hang your Squirrel Buster on a pole placed in the ground.
#Squirrel buster bird feeder plus#
My own Squirrel Buster has four perches like the one above, but since I have more small birds to feed now that the doves have taken over the communal feeder, I'm going to add the Squirrel Buster Plus to my feeder collection it has 6 portals for birds to feed.
No, you don't actually weigh the birds you just keep re-adjusting the weight limit until you are excluding the birds you want, or you can Google the average weights. The Squirrel Buster not only keeps squirrels away, it keeps the big bad doves away too! When a squirrel or a dove, or any heavy critter lands on a perch, the feed ports close! The factory setting has a 4 ounce limit, but YOU CAN SET THE WEIGHT LIMITS YOURSELF to any specification. Doves breed all year round, and I think they have a plan to take over the whole show, except for the hummingbird feeders and the Squirrel Buster, my saving grace small bird only feeder. I'm finally realizing that the finches and sparrows can no longer be fed from the communal bird feeder. If the Black Phoebe mom can grab the jay's leftovers, she will, unless the doves are around. The only bird that can move the doves out of the feeder, just by its presence on the scene, is the Scrub jay mom, who no bird will mess with! She'll grab 10 or so dried mealworms from the tray and then take off. They even compete successfully with Cowbirds. If you don't have doves in your yard, this is what they look like in a communal feeder: not much room for the finches and sparrows. Then, the not-so-small-either mourning doves aggressively compete with each other for the center spot in the feeder so they can hog the most food. So, first the Eurasian doves and their kids hit the feeder. Watch what happens when just one Eurasian dove lands in a communal bird feeder:
Guess who's taking over the communal feeder? Likewise, the mourning doves and our, until now, single pair of Eurasian doves have birthed their offspring too. The sparrows and finches just hatched their young and are introducing them to the feeders on our porch. But no worries: Squirrel Busters make them both go away. Any additional weight will activate the closing mechanism.Are squirrels the nemeses of your backyard birds? Mine are constantly invaded by doves.Weight Adjustable: the patented adjustable spring mechanism controls how much weight the metal mesh shroud will support, allowing the birds to feed.Bird food remains fresher, attracting more wild birds. Seed Ventilation System: Our patented Seed Ventilation System permits humidity and hot air to escape through the vents at the top of the feeder and replaces it with fresh air.This allows for easy cleaning and filling. No Tools Required: our feeders are designed to be dismantled by hand into individual components without the use of tools.Chew Proof: all feeder parts exposed to squirrels are made of chew proof metals or RoxResinTM, a remarkable 100% chew proof, waterproof, rustproof and UV stabilized material.Guaranteed Squirrel Proof: The weight of an adult squirrel automatically closes the seed ports, denying access to the seed but not harming the squirrels in any way.Lifetime Care: you only need to buy one of our products, and we will service your feeder for the rest of your life.These Brome bird feeders set the standard for squirrel proof bird feeders.
