Made for easy installation, it includes sturdy hooks rated to support up to 12 pounds, and its clear material preserves sightlines so birds feel secure while feeding. The design also helps keep seed drier by shedding rain and leaf debris.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the baffler stop squirrels from getting seed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe baffler interrupts the climbing or dropping path squirrels use to access feeders. When mounted above a hanging feeder, squirrels descending the wire encounter the smooth dome and can’t get a grip; if they do climb onto the dome, it tilts and sends them away from the feeder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16\" dome blocks access from above and around the feeder\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlippery, rounded surface prevents secure footing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTilt action startles and removes persistent squirrels without injury\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncluded hooks secure the baffler and feeder in place\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this baffler on a pole-fed station as well as hanging setups?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the Perky-Pet transparent baffler is designed for both hanging and pole-mounted use.
