Feed the Birds, Not the Critters ❌🐿️

Let's talk squirrels. As we watch them scurry to and fro, we know for some of us, they can be a nuisance at our bird feeders. Squirrels and other critters are a part of backyard bird feeding. If you want to feed the birds, and not the critters, we can help!

Baffle Them: Our first line of defense against squirrels and other critters is our Advanced Pole System® (APS) with Squirrel Baffle. Designed to help make your bird feeding station squirrel-resistant. Place the baffle on your setup so the top of the baffle is 4½' - 5' from the ground. Place your setup 10 ‘ away from other horizontal jumping points like a tree, deck or house.

Our Squirrel-proof Feeder Series: If a pole system, or the required spacing, doesn't work for your yard, consider one of our squirrel-resistant feeders. From the Eliminator to the Squirrel Buster Mini, we have a squirrel-resistant feeder that will meet your needs. One of our most versatile solutions, allowing you to hang a feeder from a tree branch or other location for prime bird-watching enjoyment.

Bird Feeder Cages: Take delight not only in seeing the finches, chickadees and other small birds you enjoy, but also in frustrating the squirrels and grackles. With our On Guard™ cages, you control the size of bird that dines at your feeder. Cages allow small birds to go in and out to get their food but stop larger birds and animals from entering. Our cages will fit a variety of feeder styles and sizes.

Safflower Seed: Offer safflower; a small, white seed that is high in protein and fat. Many of your favorite birds love Safflower Seed, especially Northern Cardinals, but the hard, bitter shell is a deterrent to squirrels, Grackles and European Starlings.

Hot Pepper Bird Foods: Our exclusive WBU hot pepper foods help deter critters, saving the food for the birds. Birds love our hot pepper foods, whether they are the seed or no-melt cylinders, stackables, no-melt suet cake or Bark Butter Bits. For best results, use feeders that have a roof to prevent wet weather from diluting or washing away the hot pepper oils.

Don't let squirrels on your bird feeders get you down. Stop in and we'll help tailor a solution for your yard!
