The Perky-Pet® Squirrel-Be-Gone® Bird Feeder combines innovative squirrel-resistant features with attractive design to create a feeding station that is truly unparalleled. The weight-activated cage keeps squirrels from accessing ports, while the metal helps to resist damage from chewing. With its rustic powder coating and decorative leaf-themed design, this feeder will make a charming addition in any backyard setting. Simply hang using the convenient built-in hanging cord!
Resists Squirrels
To offer defense against squirrels, this feeder boasts multiple great features. First, this feeder’s weight-activated system is calibrated to support the weight of birds but not squirrels. When squirrels try to gain access to the perches, the cage is pulled down, causing the decorative leaves to cover the ports. In addition, the metal cage prevents squirrel chewing and damage.
Accommodates Multiple Birds
With less competition from squirrels, birds won’t be able to resist the Perky-Pet® Squirrel-Be-Gone® Feeder! It features six feeding ports evenly spaced around the reservoir so multiple birds can dine at the same time and you can enjoy a better view. Plus, birds will enjoy taking a break on its comfortable U-shaped perches.
Attractive Rustic Design
Birds and bird lovers alike can’t deny the charm of this delightful feeder. The metal cage is adorned with a leafy design that will look at home in any yard. In addition, the metal is finished with a powder coating to enhance the rustic look, while also ensuring rust resistance.
Never Run Out of Seed
When you have hungry visitors in your backyard, you can’t risk running out of seed! For your convenience, the Perky-Pet® Squirrel-Be-Gone® Feeder features a clear plastic seed reservoir capable of holding up to 2 lb of seed. The clear design makes it easy to monitor seed levels at a glance so you never run out during peak feeding times.

I am so disappointed in this new version of this bird feeder. I have used the old version for years and the squirrels would attempt to get to the bird seed but could not. I purchased two feeders in January. The pictures on the Home Depot site were of the original design. After placing the feeder in the yard, the squirrels went right to it. I looked it over and it looked like the outer part was not dropping down far enough to cover the openings for the bird seed. I contacted the company and they replaced the item. I placed the new feeder out and the squirrels were at it again. They finish the bird seed in a day. I still have one of the original design feeders out and the squirrels cannot get to the bird seed. You ruined a good functioning squirrel resistant bird feeder. Your website is still showing the original design. I only wish I had read the reviews before purchasing.
This product is NOT Squirrel proof. The squirrels easily remove the flexports. once they do so, all the seed ends up ion the ground, waste of money. I am returning 3 of these poorly designed so called squirrel proof feeders to the retailer where I purchased them from. There should be a way to lighten the weight for the weight of the squirrel. my feeders are 3ft from the ground. it does not close off the ports when they jump on it.
I'm so disappointed. I've had five of these and they worked great, but they have completely changed the design. What was pictured was the older version, but they sent me the new version. The lead that attaches to my hook just spins now and throws my seed out. Plus, I've seen the top pulled up multiple times now with the seed exposed. It has a button latch now that apparently a really smart squirrel or raccoon can figure out. Bad design. Go back to the older one. I will not buy another one until they do. Don't buy this!!
Don’t buy this if it’s hung an an area where rain might get in. The seeds collect on the bottom causing mold to grow and you cannot disassemble the bottom part. Useless and dangerous to use! Don’t waste your money!
Really wanted this to be the one to keep squirrels away. They hang from top so as to avoid putting weight on feeder posts, but this happens with most feeders. The major problem was the squirrels pulled out 2-3 of the plastic hold covers, I'm guessing they put their paws in and yank them out, then tip feeder to dump food on ground below. I even went as far as to crazy glue plastic back on and they yanked them off again. Nice looking feeder but squirrels are smarter than the designers!
These keep breaking. I've had to buy 4 of them so far as each one keeps breaking some how. The outer part where birds sit breaks and the birds can't get to the food. Or the springs break and the same thing happens. Or the squirrel can get into the holes, where I had a squirrel stuck inside the feeder and he ate a hole to get himself out and then used that to feed whenever he wanted. At $40 a pop at the local hardware store, that's a lot of money on these low quality feeders. I did see a newer version, I may try it but again this is getting to be expensive.
The old version wasn't perfect, but it was much better than the second. The plastic tube in the new version isn't a tube. It's two plastic pieces that go together forming two seems down opposite sides. Squirrels can't get in, but the rain sure can. The new version isn't a birdfeeder, it's a terrarium. I want my money back.
I think the cardinals are having trouble with this feeder. It looks like when a cardinal is on the perch the bird’s body blocks the port. Can you confirm that the feeder is not designed for birds larger than sparrows and finches?

This feeder is best used for chickadees, finches, nuthatches, titmice, and other similarly sized birds.

Can you replace the bottom cap on Model 336? Squirrels knocked it down and one of the lock tabs broke off.

The springs on this feeder broke. Can you send replacement parts?

A raccoon tried to get into the feeder and stretched the springs. Now birds can’t get in as the springs don’t spring back up into place. Are there replacement springs available to purchase? I just got this feeder end of last year in a local big box store and I’m bummed I didn’t even get a year of use.

Thank you for reaching out, and I'm sorry to hear about the damage to your feeder.
Unfortunately, we do not offer replacement parts for this feeder model, including the springs. We understand how disappointing this can be, especially since you've only had the feeder for less than a year.
To help prevent future damage from raccoons or other wildlife, we recommend placing the feeder at least 10–12 feet away from any surfaces that animals could jump from, and mounting it on a pole with a baffle if possible. This can help deter raccoons from reaching the feeder and causing further issues.

I have the Squirrell-be-gone wild bird feeder and have trouble cleaning it. Water has gotten in and the seed caked. Is there a mechanism to remove the bottom for a thorough cleaning? Do I just soak it and use a long brush?
Question by: Mary on Feb 18, 2025, 4:12 PM
Hi, thank you for your question. The way to clean it is by soaking the feeder in warm water and using a brush to clean the inside thoroughly.
