Wrap-Around Squirrel
Baffle! When installed properly with the included coupler, the durable steel baffle prevents pole-climbing
squirrels from accessing bird
feeders, keeping birdseed safe and saving you money! Compatible with 0.5 in. to 1.25 in. diameter poles, its unique
wrap-around design means easy installation, anytime. With a wide, 18 in. diameter, the Wrap-Around Squirrel Baffle
is your best defense against squirrels.
As the title said, this was nice & solid & easy to install, but the baffle hooks to itself by interlocking the edges of the cone, and did not stay interlocked. I fixed this by drilling a small hole near the outer edge & securing with a sheet metal screw. Hence the 4 stars.
It's on the pricey side. Given that, one would think that the materials were very high quality; but that's not really the case. The clamp for the bird feeder pole came with two bolts; but the bolts don't fit the holed in the clamp (too small and come right out) and there were no nuts or washers (which might have made it work) - so off to the hardware store to get nuts, bolts that fit the clamp, and washers to keep the whole business snug. And the actual squirrel 'shield' does not stay clipped together - I had to drill it and use sheet metal screws to keep it from coming apart. Plan on spending extra time, money, and effort on making this a useful baffle.

I HAVE PURCHASED OVER A DOZEN OF YOUR ABOVE BAFFLES OVER THE YEARS AND THEY ALL END UP ON THE GROUND WITHIN A COUPLE OF MONTHS BECAUSE THE CLAMPS ARE VERY INFERIOR - DO YOU PLAN TO UPGRADE THESE? IN THE MEANTIME DO YOU HAVE APPROPRIATE REPLACEMENT CLAMPS? THANK YOU.
I am so very pleased with this squirrel baffle. My husband and I have tried many ways to stop the squirrels from eating the food for the song birds, but no luck. This works like a dream and I tell every one it is the best 40 dollars I ever spent. There are 6 other feeders for the squirrels to steal from, this feeder is for the cardinals and other birds.
The product slowed them down BUT they still make it up to the feeders! Not as often as before but they somehow make it up to them! Nice to try but they are still winning the battle!
