Droll Yankees Inc YCPW-180 Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder

Product Description

The DROLL YANKEES INC YCPW-180 is a 4-port sunflower bird feeder built with a weight-activated squirrel deterrent system. When a squirrel lands on any of the four perches, the added weight causes the perches to collapse downward, closing off access to the seed ports. The mechanism resets automatically once the weight is removed. The feeder measures 4.75 inches in diameter and 21 inches in length and is sold as a package of two units. It is suited for outdoor residential installation and is designed with cardinals and similar perching birds in mind.

This feeder is intended for backyard and garden use in residential settings. The 180-degree weight-activated perch design allows songbirds to feed normally while excluding squirrels without the use of baffles, cages, or chemical deterrents. The four seed ports provide multiple simultaneous feeding positions, making it a practical choice for yards with consistent bird activity. Each package contains two feeders.

Installation Notes

Hang the feeder from a sturdy branch, shepherd hook, or pole using the integrated hanging hardware.

Inspect the collapsing perch mechanism periodically for debris or seed buildup that could interfere with proper operation.
