The future of new product, manufacturing and the preservation of the planet must be linked to a vision of products made to last.
How It Works
Openings in the shroud align with the feeding ports, providing bird’s access to the food. When a squirrel climbs onto the feeder, its weight automatically forces the shroud down, closing access to the ports. Squirrels and some large birds are foiled but not harmed in any way. Position your feeder wherever you like to get great close-up views of your favorite birds. Hang it over a window, in a tree, on a deck, from a fence, in your garden, on the side of your house, from a rain trough or over sliding doors. Use brackets, extension hooks and tree hooks to hang your feeder at the 18-inch (47 cm) recommended clearance.
Need for Clearance
Remember it’s a squirrel’s weight that triggers the closing mechanism. If a squirrel can reach over from a nearby foothold and avoid placing its weight on the feeder, it can access the birdseed. To overcome this problem, allow for at least 18-inch 47 cm of clearance around the feeder. This will force the squirrel to climb onto the feeder and trigger the closing mechanism. Cleaning Instructions include removing hanger nut, removing shroud, pressing tabs in and pulling. Hand wash in warm soapy water and/or in 1/10 bleach solution. It is recommended to clean your Squirrel Solution 150 bird feeder at least once a month. Warmer climates might require more frequent cleaning. Chickadee, Rose-Breasted Grosbeak, Evening Grosbeak, etc are some of the birds that will visit your feeder.
