Squirrel Baffle Protect bird feeders and nesting boxes with a large, durable baffle designed to block climbing and chewing rodents. This 24 inch diameter baffle wraps around poles to keep seeds for birds, reduce feeder damage, and blend unobtrusively into outdoor settings. Key benefits Effective barrier: The large 24 inch diameter covers poles and creates a wide, smooth surface that prevents squirrels from gaining and climbing past the baffle. Durable material: Made from polypropylene with a glossy black finish that resists cracking and ultraviolet wear. Unlike metal guards, this PP design will not rust. Low maintenance: Smooth, glazed surface sheds dirt and is easy to wipe clean so the baffle stays functional and attractive season after season. Stable installation: Upgraded cover plate and included fastening hardware secure the baffle tightly to poles so it does not scatter in wind or when jostled. Universal compatibility: Fits round poles and shepherds hooks with diameters from 2/3 inch up to 1 inch.

The glossy PP construction is wear resistant and designed for outdoor weather exposure without rusting or rapid deterioration.
