The Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder

Tired of fighting with squirrels to keep them out of your bird feeder?  Then it's time to buy a
squirrel proof bird feeder. 

There are now many models of the squirrel proof bird feeder.  They are all designed to keep squirrels out.  The twirl a squirrel bird feeder is made so that when a squirrel jumps on to the feeder it starts to twirl so that the squirrel can not get to the seed and eventually it will twirl it off the feeder. 

Other squirrel proof bird feeders are mechanical in nature.  They are activated by the heavy weight of the squirrel.  One of these has a wire grid opening to the seed and when a squirrel gets on the perch its weight forces down the grid cutting off access to the seed.  There are other designs using this same feature to keep out heavier animals. 

Another type of squirrel proof bird feeder are those that use cages to keep out unwanted critters. The feeder itself is actually encaged not allowing bigger birds and squirrels to get to the seed.

If you are frustrated with constantly re-filling your feeder to only see it gone in a few days to those pesky squirrels I recommend looking at one of the many types of squirrel proof bird feeders.  It will save you much frustration and time and money from constantly adding more seed to your feeder.
