SQUIRREL PROOF

GUARANTEED

How to site and hang

your bird feeder and

frustrate the squirrels

Frustrated and hungry squirrels will tirelessly seek out

any opportunity of a vantage point from which they

can bypass the mechanism of this feeder and leap

directly onto the seed tube. Therefore,

you must

hang it so that the squirrels can ONLY approach

from above

If the garden doesn’t offer an obvious ‘safe’ hanging

point, then suspending the feeder beneath a

horizontal wire slung between two points in the

garden is the best way to site it. Ensure that you have

good clearance all around the feeder – no branches,

trees, bushes, fences, buildings or garden furniture

etc. within 1.5m (5 feet), and place the feeder at least

1.35m (4

⁄2 feet) above the ground. Wherever you

hang your feeder, be certain to use the supplied wire

to suspend the feeder at least one foot below the

hanging point.

Use perches hinged down.

A little thought and careful following of these

instructions now, will reward you with the guaranteed

satisfaction of beating the squirrels and ensuring your

garden birds are still fed their favourite seed.
