Keep squirrels off your feeders and keep setup simple with this 17 inch adjustable squirrel baffle for 4x4 posts. Built from thickened metal, it offers a wide coverage area and a secure mounting system that adapts to common pole and stake sizes. Key benefits Wide 17 inch diameter increases coverage and reduces the chance a squirrel can reach or balance on the baffle. Adjustable opening: bend the opening of the stopper to fit poles from 0.4 to 2 inch or stakes from 2 to 4.2 inch wide, solving fit problems with thicker poles. Metal retainer for reliable attachment: the metal holder secures the baffle to poles and resists damage that can occur with plastic holders. Durable construction: made from thickened metal across the body for longer service life and resistance to chewing and typical outdoor weather conditions. Simple installation and effective deterrence: the wider surface and slight movement prevent squirrels from easily climbing past the baffle. Features Size: 17 inch width for expanded protection. Compatibility: fits 0.4 to 2 inch bird feeder poles and 2 to 4.2 inch wide stakes or 4x4 posts after adjusting the opening. Material: allmetal construction, including the metal retainer for mounting. Function: larger profile and secure attachment make it difficult for squirrels to land and climb past the baffle. Practical applications Mount on a bird feeder pole in a yard to keep squirrels from reaching hanging feeders. Attach to a 4x4 porch or deck post to protect seed trays placed on railings and prevent squirrels from climbing. Install on a garden stake near fruiting shrubs or small trees to reduce squirrel access to mounted feed or food stations. This squirrel baffle is a straightforward, adjustable solution for common mounting challenges and for improving protection of outdoor bird feeding areas.
