Product DescriptionContech - Squirrel Scatter Electronic Squirrel Proof Birdfeeder SquirrelScatter: Sturdy Attractive Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder with Automatic Squirrel Deterrent Feed birds, not squirrels. The SquirrelScatter® squirrel proof bird feeder welcomes birds and discourages squirrels. Six bird perches let birds enjoy seeds and grain. Squirrels receive a harmless, brief electrical pulse when they climb onto the thin layers of chrome on the base or roof of the bird feeder. Two D cell batteries power the squirrel repellent feature. Ideal for both gardeners and bird fanciers, the SquirrelScatter attracts wild birds while discouraging destructive squirrel pests. How and why this squirrel proof bird feeder works: The SquirrelScatter® squirrel proof bird feeder combines an efficient spill-resistant design with a harmless yet effective electronic squirrel deterrent. Birds perched at any feeding station or on any part of the feeder eat undisturbed. When a squirrel lands on the SquirrelScatterfeeder, the squirrel touches two or more points with its body and completes the electrical circuit. Completing the circuit creates mild electrical pulses similar to static electricity. The squirrel scatters. Squirrels quickly learn to stay off the bird feeder. Birds then enjoy their meals in peace. Setting up the SquirrelScatter is easy. Install two ''D'' cell batteries, add bird food, hang the bird feeder from a branch or pole and turn it on. To refill the SquirrelScatter squirrel proof bird feeder, switch off the power, remove the top hatch, add bird food and flip the switch to on. The pulsing light shows that the batteries are working. The SquirrelScatter operates for up to three months on one pair of alkaline batteries. Note from Barbara: Nothing like watching an envious squirrel as the birds feast from the feeder in my back yard. I had birds most of the year and no squirrels. SquirrelScatter Birdfeeder Specifications: Operation : Touching 2 or more points on the base or the

Great but filled with problems you won't forget
I found this terrific, but filled with a host of problems you won't soon forget. Not even a day passed before my squirrels popped the lid off the top. There is no electricity at the top to stop them. I spent another $20 and quite a few hours and modified the top and wiring to electrify that as well. Thank goodness I am handy. This could prove frustrating if you are not handy, nor clever too. The birds can't get to the seed at the last 2" from the bottom and that quickly rots and drives the birds away. The inside is especially difficult to clean and I needed a long stick to pry out the damp solidified seed and a lot of patience to clean it. A lot of what looks like metal in the photos is silver painted plastic and while I assembled it right ... Read More
