Brome Squirrel Buster Classic

Proudly developed in Canada by Brome Bird Care, Knowlton, Quebec

The Squirrel Buster Classic is a squirrel-proof tube feeder that holds 2.4 lb of seed and uses a weight-based mechanism to close the seed ports when a squirrel climbs on. Birds are light enough that they do not trigger it.

How does it keep squirrels out?

A wire shroud closes the seed ports under a squirrel's weight. Openings in the shroud line up with the seed ports so birds can reach the seed. When a squirrel climbs onto the feeder, its weight automatically forces the shroud down and closes access to the ports. All squirrels and many large birds are foiled but not harmed in any way.

How does it keep seed fresh?

A patented seed tube ventilation system lets humidity and warm air escape through waterproof vents at the top of the feeder. Clear seed tubes trap solar energy like greenhouses, and traditional tube covers block heated air from escaping. Fresh air replaces it through the seed ports and openings at the bottom of the tube, so the seed stays fresher and attracts more birds.

Can I keep large birds off it?

Yes. Remove the perches to turn it into a clingers-only feeder. Without perches, large perching birds such as grackles and doves are less likely to use it.

How much does it hold, and what is the warranty?

It holds 2.4 lb of seed and is covered by a 2-year manufacturer's warranty.
