What you need to understand is, with some of the previous squirrel-proof models I have used, the squirrels have literally bitten through the steel cage, managed to open lids, and credit where credits are due, squirrels are crafty little things. They have literally thought of everything in the design. I know what you’re thinking, ‘calm down John it’s a bird feeder’ but really, it’s very well designed and the build quality is unmatched by most models I’ve had. What an extremely well made and innovative piece of kit. I’ve got to say, I’ve been really impressed with everything about it. This Jacobi Jayne SB-1057 Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder – the Squirrel Buster – is one of a series of similar bird feeders from this manufacturer and this model is the one I have been testing over the last 12 months. Jacobi Jayne SB-1057 Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder in my garden Overall, this is well worth adding to your garden if you need one for peannuts. If your looking for a feeder for peanuts, this is what I would recommend and I thought it was surprisingly affordable. This squirrel-proof bird feeder also has an attractive lantern shape and a decorative lid, easily making it part of your garden décor. Its impossable for the squirrels to remove the lid because of this design unlike some models where the lid just clips off and they have access to the bird food. Apart from the quality as its uses fairly thick steel wire for the cage, where I have found this model is different from similar models that look very similar is that the lid screws off and then the feeder and cage drop off from below to refill the feeder. Squirrels and large birds just can’t get through the mesh and trust me they have tried. Small birds enter through the gaps in the mesh, perch on the grid floor or feeder tube and eat the peanuts. This bird feeder has a metal grid cage surrounding a stainless steel mesh tube that holds the peanuts. This Peckish Secret Garden Squirrel Proof Peanut Bird Feeder has proved very effective at stopping squirrels getting to the peanuts but the smaller birds with happly pass through the larger cage. If your feathered visitors to your garden prefer peanuts to seed which are the blue tits and coat tits in my garden. It really does work well, i'm yet to find a more effective model for bird seed. If you have problems with squirrels and use bird seed, this squirrel proof bird feeder is what you need. Where this model has been better than some of the similar models I have had is that it has a long tube on the top which seems to stop the squirrels from using there back legs to hold onto the top of the feeder and hang down. The build quality is excellent too, well put together and the design works really well. I like that you can also adjust the weight needed to shut of the feed off but I have it on the lighest setting and it works perfectly. Smaller birds as there much lighter don’t trigger this mechanism and can eat all they want of the seed through the open portal. This clever design shuts off access to the seed inside. When a squirrel puts weight on any part of the feeder, the spring-loaded mechanism moves downwards and closes the feed portals off. This green metal feeder I have beenn testinng has a domed roof and four perches and the design really is well designed. This Jacobi Jayne bird feeder is just one of a range of squirrel-proof bird feeders which hold varying amounts of seed and cater to different varieties of birds.
