And it is so funny to see them push it up. Cracks me up. I have wasted money on baffles, grease, so-called squirrel proof feeders. Don’t waste your money or time. This easily snaps to the pole with no tools needed.

Peter: Squirrels are smart, or at least the ones in our backyard which backs to a forested area are. If you position the baffle too low the squirels will jump over the baffle or drop down from a nearby tree to get around the obstruction. If you postion the baffle too high they stretch up and over to grab the feeder and pull it towards them to get at the seed in the feeder. IF...you position the feeder and baffle away from trees, e.g. greater than 12', and you put the baffle approximately vertically center on the feeder the squirrels will be effectively kept away from the feeder. Larger animals, e.g. racoons, can get the food from the feeder if they use brute force and knock the feeder over onto the ground. At night it's best to bring the feeder into the house to avoid the nocturnal animals.

SMB 515: This baffle works great and as expected. However, I did have a sparrow get its leg stuck in the small crack between the pieces at the top. Because that happened I now put a piece of tape over the cracks at the top. I do not have concerns it will happen again with the tape, so recommend that tip to any others using the product for thier bird feeders!

bunner100: We'll after a raccoon dragged my last feeder pole and all down the revine in my backyard destroyed the feeder and actually bent the pole I figured I better get something. This does the trick. A bit expensive. Also this will not really fit 1/2" or smaller steal rod feeder poles. Some simple application of duct tape did the trick to lock the barrel collar on the rod. Not any cheaper in the stores so I made it work.

Bill Shepherd: The media could not be loaded. Easy to install, but if it is a smaller pole, you will have to build it up with tape or some thing and then put the clamp on. Also, if it’s a small pole, you will have to tape the top because the squirrel may crawl through.

Margaret Wright: This works so well. It's pretty big, but that's OK, because it works! I've had it up for about a month now and the squirrels stopped trying to get up the pole after just a few days. The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is because I had to do a little work on the clamp that goes around the pole. It was too large for the pole of our shepherd's hook, so I had to add some padding to both sides of the clamp, using foam for bulk and some leather scraps for grip (I cut up an old leather glove and used a piece of foam that came with an old bike helmet). No problem, and no more bird seed knocked to the ground.

AmazonUser: I bought Ashman 91 Inch Adjustable Shepherds Hook item: B082YGX3V2 as it was the cheapest but tallest hook I could find (surprisingly sturdy and good quality). I then purchased this stopper/ baffle to keep the tree rats off. When I went to install it, I found that the thickness of the hook was smaller than 1/2 which is the minimum size for this baffle clamp. So the clamp just slid right down even though it was tightened all the way.
I remedied this by just placing another piece of 1/8 in thick hard rubber I had on top of the existing rubber gasket in side of the clamp, so now when I tightened it down, it stayed put. Seems very silly to not include different sized rubber/ rubber attachments that can be added to accommodate a wider range of pole thickness.
Other thing I can potentially see an issue is the squirrel climbing up inside of the baffle and chewing on the clamp; looks like this already happened to others. Could make the metal piece close fully with various metal punch outs depending on the diameter of the pole. This way the squirrel couldn't get past the base of it.
Besides those two things, seems to be good quality. I have mine over 5 feet high so...

LM: The media could not be loaded. Worked great for black squirrels! Red squirrels can get past it but it slows them down considerably as can be seen in this enjoyable video :) I'm not going through nearly as much seed as before so I'm pretty happy with this product. Easy to install. I think it would deter the red squirrels if I had a longer pole and could get greater distance from the bottom of the baffler to the feeder.

Tanya Zundel: The squirrels still climb to the top of the feeder, but they can't seem to dump it anymore, so less mess.

Serafina: I am so excited that I found the secret weapon against squirrels. The wide baffles only worked for a short while. These torpedo shaped baffles have the squirrels stumped! I have had these new baffles for several weeks and most of the squirrels have given up trying to get to the feeders. The few that persisted are forced to clean up the ground instead, saving me a fortune in bird seed! I wish the baffles came in other colors.
