CB..this is my squirrel stopper. And it really works. They sometimes try climbing the staff and they start sliding as they approach under the bell area. And notice the distance from the Pin Oak branches. Its location on the outer rim of the limbs so squirrels can't jump from any limbs. The doves and bigger birds use the feeder on the left. I try to have seed on the large rim. I'd like to trim my Oak Leaf Hydrangea but fail to do so maybe I'll remember this year....birds love to be inside of it especially during rains.

Neat, a simple concept but effective. I was watching on YouTube, some guy had bought all these bird feeders that were intended to keep squirrels out and he showed how squirrels got into every one of them. And they weren’t cheap! You should patent your bell :-)

My husband uses a Slinky on the pole. The old Slinky’s that we had as toys.

Does your squirrel stopper deter raccoons?
