Feed birds (not squirrels!) with the revolutionary Squirrel-X LX1 Squirrel-Resistant Bird Feeder! If a squirrel tries to feed on any of the 4 spring-loaded perches, the LX1’s integrated design shuts every port simultaneously, stopping racketeering rodents right in their tracks. From cardinals and grosbeaks to finches and more, songbirds love the LX1’s long, circular perches that provide comfortable feeding. The wide top opening makes refilling a breeze. The LX1’s reinforced metal tabs and metal-covered hanging wire are built to resist squirrel chewing. Its large, 4.2 lb. seed capacity lasts longer between refillings, and the built-in seed diverter keeps seeds flowing to hungry birds. With a bird finial on top for added decoration and a rugged metal frame in a powder-coated forest green finish, the Squirrel-X LX1 combines strength & style to bring you the ultimate in squirrel-resistant bird feeding and your best defense against squirrels!

Placement to deter squirrels: The key to keeping a bird feeder successfully squirrel-proofed is the placement. Place your bird feeder 4 feet from the ground and 8 feet from anything a squirrel can jump from. When hanging from a pole by a hook, it is recommended that the hook have at least a 16” distance from the pole. Placing a baffle on the pole or having a caged feeder will also help to ensure squirrel-proof success.

Cleaning: Dirty bird feeders spread disease. We recommend cleaning your feeders weekly, or monthly at a minimum. Do not put your feeder in the dishwasher as the high temperatures can permanently damage the feeder parts. Clean your feeders outdoors with a large bucket, and always wear gloves when cleaning. Soak your feeder in a 9:1 solution of water and bleach for 15 minutes. Then use a bird feeder brush to scrub the feeder with dish soap and water. Refill when completely dry.

Really squirrel proof!
5
Oct 2, 2022
This is the first squirrel proof feeder I have purchased that really works. Additionally, the top two feeder perches are filled independently from the bottom ones enabling seed to be available instead of all seed dropping down to the bottom of the feeder. Three different seed mixes can also be used. I did find removing the top to fill it to be a little difficult, especially initially as the top has to be removed to get at the instructions on how to remove the top. Overall, this is an attractive feeder that works well and holds a good amount of seed.

Squirrels can no longer get to the seeds.

I love this feeder. It has been up for about three months and I am no longer refilling it every other day. It is well made ad certainly well worth the cost. I also bought the squirrel guard which is very well made and I am sure it will last longer than the less expensive ones. I am sure the squirrel guard has helped, but the combination has fixed our problem.

Love the feeder as do the birds and it appears to be keeping those pesky squirrels from getting the seeds. This will save so much for me on birdseed. Thanks for making such good products for us bird lovers!

I like it that it’s much lighter weight than my old feeder, but I don’t get as many birds since there are only four feeding stations

I love feeding birds and dislike when squirrels take food. This keeps the squirrels out and birds get all the seeds. Great product!!

Keeps squirrels off!

This feeder really deters squirrels. It is well made and attractive. Having the perches on each side allows you to see all birds feeding instead of having some hidden on perches in the back of the feeder. The upper two seed hoppers also fill independently from the bottom one so they retain seed versus having all seed fall to just the bottom perches as the birds eat. The top is a little difficult to remove to fill the feeder. It did not help that the instructions on how to remove the top were inside the feeder with the top closed.

It took a little time to get used to the 3 chambers, but it is a smart design. Birds are all over the feeder. Thank you.
