Mounting a squirrel baffle on your pole prevents squirrels and small raccoons from climbing or jumping up to the bird feeder or house. This wrap-around, break-apart squirrel baffle works for poles 1/2" to 1" diameter. It also works for 7/16" to 5/8" square poles. Since this baffle is made with galvanized steel, it maintains its attractive appearance for years, and carries an unconditional, lifetime guarantee against defects in material and workmanship. Dimensions: 17" diameter Hardware is Included: The mounting collar is as important as the baffle shield itself! An all metal support collar with instructions is included. Ordinary baffles often include substandard and, in some cases, plastic collars. The collar must hold the baffle securely in place. It must not be plastic, as plastic collars can and will be chewed through! How to Install: To keep squirrels from getting onto your bird feeder, place your pole-mounted feeders 8-10' away from railings, roofs, trees, or other structures. Squirrel baffles should be a minimum of 4' from the ground to protect the bird feeder. To close your baffle, slide the left tab into the right slot until they snap together.Made in the USA!
