A premium product for a lifetime of peaceful bird feeding.

Our largest-capacity model, the Squirrel Buster® Plus squirrel-proof bird feeder is also our most popular. Measuring 28” tall from base to hanger, the Squirrel-Buster Plus holds a whopping 5.1 lbs of birdseed and features our patented Cardinal Ring System™.  Fully weight adjustable, you can fine-tune your feeder to exclude larger birds.

TRULY SQUIRREL PROOF™: Openings in the shroud align with the feeding ports, providing birds 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.

CHEW PROOF: All feeder parts exposed to squirrels are made with chew proof materials.

DETACHABLE COMPONENT SYSTEM™: Squirrel Buster® squirrel-proof bird feeders are designed to be dismantled by hand into individual components without the use of tools. This allows for easy cleaning and maintenance.

SEED VENTILATION SYSTEM™: Transparent seed tubes trap solar energy. Conventional seed tube designs block the escape of the heated air. Brome's patented Seed Tube Ventilation™ permits humidity and hot air to escape through vents at the top of the feeder and replaces it with fresh air. Bird food remains fresher, attracting more wild birds.

UV RESISTANT: All components are UV resistant.

PAYS FOR ITSELF IN SAVED SEED™: Squirrels can no longer steal your wild bird seed. Over a short period of time this adds up to substantial savings that will pay for the purchase of your feeder.

WEIGHT ADJUSTABLE: Patented weight adjustable spring mechanism controls how much weight the shroud will support allowing the birds to feed. Any additional weight will activate the closing mechanism.

LIFETIME CARE™

DISCLAIMER: This feeder will NOT deter Grackles, Starlings, juvenile Red/Douglas/Flying Squirrels, Chipmunks, Possums, Bears, Deer or Raccoons. Please bring your feeder in at night to prevent night visitors from emptying and destroying your feeder.

Where to locate your feeder

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 in./47 cm of clearance around the feeder. This will force the squirrel to climb onto the feeder and trigger the closing mechanism

Hi Nod, Thank you for your comment—it’s a great observation, and we’re happy to clarify. In the video, we mention that the feeder can be adjusted in a way that may help deter grackles, depending on their size and behavior. However, because grackles vary so much in cleverness and persistence (and some are truly unstoppable!), our written disclaimer states that the feeder is not guaranteed to block them completely. We always aim to be transparent while offering practical tips—and we’re here if you’d like help adjusting your feeder for your specific backyard visitors! Warm regards, The Brome Team
