Bird Feeder & Accessories

Here are a couple items to help you hang bird feeders out of squirrel and deer’s reach

==> These hangers are convenient for making your own DIY bird feeder pole. You can easily screw them into a 4×4 or wood pole

And this is an amazon link for a pair of 110″ (9 foot) shepherds hooks. If you place this in a location 10′ away from structures, fences, and trees, then when combined with a squirrel baffle, the bird feeder will be squirrel proof.

Squirrel baffles

Both of these squirrel baffles work. One is for square posts, while the other is for standard small diameter poles and shepherds hooks. They are metal, so won’t turn brittle.
