Product Description

The Birdscapes Squirrel-Be-Gone I Wild Bird Feeder features 8 U-shaped perches, 8 feeding ports and holds 6 lbs. of seed. The interior seed tower is surrounded by metalwork. The feeding ports have sturdy metal perches that allow birds to feed comfortably, but when the squirrels perch on them, their weight causes the entire metal casing to slip down, completely blocking the feeding ports and their access to the seed. The eight perch/feeding station set-up, coupled with the anti-squirrel technology makes this feeder one of the most economical and convenient on the market !The clear, shatter-proof plastic reservoir makes it easy to monitor seed levels. Remember to clean your feeder once every two weeks with mild soap and water solution. Birdscapes is the leading supplier of Wild Bird Feeders and Accessories. Birdscapes Wild Bird Feeder models lure the bird in pursuit of seed providing you with hours of joy as random wild birds flock to feed at your house.

When the feeder is filled to the top, its thin plastic sides come apart under the weight of seeds, spilling them along the joints and preventing the anti-squirrel cover from sliding down or lifting back. Returning right away.

Birdscapes® 350 Squirrel-Be-Gone I Feeder, 6 lb capacity The squirrel be gone feature works well but the design of the feeding stations allowed too much seed to fall onto the ground.
I watched the sparrows spill half of the feeder in a very short time, now I have to attach a seed catcher to save the seed that falls.

1.0 out of 5 stars Squirrels were smarter than this squirrel-proof bird feeder!, December 18, 2010

This review is from: Birdscapes 350 Squirrel-Be-Gone Wild Bird Feeder (Lawn & Patio)

I was having serious trouble with the squirrels eating all our bird seed, so I decided that I was going to try this so-called squirrel proof feeder. It worked for a short time until the squirrels figured out how to open the feeder from the top! No matter how many times I tried to snugly attach the lid, they were able to get in and eat the entire supply of bird seed.

Finally, one night, we heard some strange sounds outside. We went and looked and there was a squirrel stuck upside inside the feeder. He was freaking out. We ended up having to get the Humane Society guy out in the middle of the night. Because the squirrel's foot was wrapped around the wire inside the feeder, the Humane Society guy had to tear the bird feeder apart to rescue the little guy. The squirrel had a bloody foot, but was otherwise okay. And that was the traumatic end to that bird feeder.

Since then, I've invested in one of Wild Birds Unlimited's Advanced Pole System with a squirrel baffle and I haven't a problem since.
