Totally squirrel proof!!May 21, 2008 C. Finan(England) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
If I could give this 10 stars I would! You hang this feeder from a tree branch or bird table: it needs to be a certain distance from the ground and from other surfaces (to prevent the squirrel from jumping up or across to it). The metal sleeve slides down over the feeder when the squirrel tries to come down from above it to feed (which is why the feeder has to be positioned right). Hard to describe on paper, but it works superbly in practice. Follow the instructions that come with this and you will never be bothered by squirrels again - guaranteed. The best squirrel proof feeder I've ever tried, and I've had it for many months now. No squirrel has managed to defeat it and the birds love it. The peanut version is just as good as well.

This bird feeder truly is squirrel proof it baffles the squirrels as the feeder shuts down and the squirrels fall off Yes flying squirrels!
Lets in the rain and seeds get wetAugust 12, 2008 Reviewer(London, England) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This may keep the squirrels off but it does not keep the rain off. It seems that the water is either running down the suspension wire directly into the seed holder or down the narrow tube at the very top, either way it is ok in a light shower but in the rain the water gets in, makes the seeds wet and they clump together. So I have to throw away the seeds after a downpour. But is fine in the sun.
