Woodlink Squirrel-Go-Round Spinning Corn Cob Squirrel Feeder

The Woodlink Squirrel-Go Round Spinning Corn Cob Squirreler provides backyard squirrels with a fun, interactive feeder. This merry-go-round feeder features five arms, each containing an ear of corn. The squirrels must wait until the corn reaches the end of each arm, but this is not a problem since the feeder is made for entertaining purposes rather than to discourage the birds from eating from it.

This woodlink feeding station will offer hours of fun for the squirrels, and it’s easy to install. Squirrels love to snack on nuts, so it’s easy to find and cheap to purchase. You can also install a fence to keep squirrels out of your yard, if you have one.

The feeder is easy to clean by spraying off the food that it holds.

To open the Squirrel Buster feeder, gently twist the lid counterclockwise. Do not twist it all the way off – the steel wire is permanently attached to the lid. To close the feeder, keep it level. It is best to avoid dropping it because it can break. If you break it, you may have to replace the cob squirrel feeder. The Woodlink Squirrel Buster Classic is a high-quality open-cob feeder that will attract and feed your garden’s squirrels.

Woodlink Squirrel-Go-Round

This unique, merry-go-round-style squirrel feeder has five arms and a decorative center point. The corn in the arms rotates around the wheel, attracting the squirrels to the rotating ear. If you have a large garden, you can place this feeder on a fence or ledge. The instructions and pictures below will help you get started.

One of the most important features of this feeder is the fact that it is not easy to break into pieces for squirrels to feed on. The metal inside and the plastic tube are both difficult for squirrels to chew through, making this an ideal squirrel feeder. Its plastic tube remains stiff even after a year or two of use. The feeder also has metal disks on the loop, making it more difficult for the squirrels to get to the food.

Swinging basket feeder

If you are wondering how to open a swinging basket feeder, you may find it difficult at first. These feeders have four chains and are often hard to keep closed in windy conditions.

The Wildlife World swing seat feeder has a stylish design that will draw the attention of garden birds. This feeder is suitable for suet, peanut, and dried mealworms. It can easily be cleaned, thanks to its removable metal roof. Larger birds may have trouble perching in it, but smaller birds can use it just fine. Its textured surface makes it impossible for large birds to get too close.

Easy DIY espresso squirrel feeder

If you’ve got a scrap piece of wood lying around, turn it into a platform for your squirrel feeder. Add a screw or hinge to it, and your new platform will open up, exposing a food box for your squirrel. By standing on the inclined platform, you’ll be conditioning the squirrels to associate this platform with food. You can also use an old espresso machine or a bicycle seat to make a platform for your squirrel feeder.

If you’re an experienced woodworker, you can create a sophisticated and attractive squirrel feeder using metal coffee cans. However, if you’re not a woodworker, you can create a basic DIY espresso feeder by drilling a small well in the end of the tree branch and filling it with a mix of nuts and seeds. Once the squirrels have discovered this easy DIY espresso feeder, they’ll flock to it for hours.
