Save money on bird food by focusing on feeding the birds and not all the squirrels in your yard! The Squirrel Buster Plus bird feeder satisfies your favorite songbirds, but keeps out squirrels and a few nuisance birds as well. An adjustable weight spring mechanism closes access to the seed ports when a squirrel hops onto the perch. This effectively - and safely - prevents the squirrels from feasting on the prized seed you've so lovingly put out for the birds. Watch the product video to see how it works! The spring mechanism can be adjusted to keep out smaller red squirrels in addition to the bigger and more common gray squirrels, which makes this feeder ideal if you have red squirrels in your area. You can also adjust the spring mechanism to permit some larger birds such as grackles to access the feeder if you choose. Adjustable length perches and an attachable cardinal ring let all your favorite avian friends perch securely while they feed.
Another benefit of the Squirrel Buster Plus is that seed stays fresher longer than in conventional tube feeders, thanks to a patented seed tube ventilation system. Hot air escapes through waterproof vents near the top of the feeder, while cooler air circulates into it through the seed ports. This not only saves you money on seed, but helps the birds stay healthy, too. Decaying bird seed can harbor bacteria that are harmful to birds, so it is important that seed in feeders remains fresh. The flange over the feeding ports also helps to keep the seed fresh by keeping out rainwater.
The Squirrel Buster Plus disassembles easily for cleaning without any tools - see the video for a demo. It is dishwasher safe and rustproof as well. With a generous 3 quart seed capacity and a 24 month warranty from Brome Bird Care, this feeder is a great value for your dollar. The product is 24" long x 6.75" high x 7.75" wide.
Compared with the Squirrel Buster Classic, the Squirrel Buster Plus has a much larger seed capacity (3qts vs 1.4qts) and features adjustable spring tension. Adjustable spring tension makes the feeder more flexible to use since it is easier to tweak it to discourage larger nuisance birds that may be in your area without having to remove any ring perches. Cardinals and other perching birds won't use a feeder that doesn't have perching surfaces. In addition, the small baffle over the seed ports in the Squirrel Buster Plus helps to keep seed drier in all sorts of weather.
