Squirrel Buster Plus Bird Feeder Bundle with 25 lb Sunflower

In this review the Squirrel Buster Plus Bird Feeder Bundle with 25-pound Wagner black oil sunflower mix is judged as a practical choice for backyard birders who want to cut waste and attract a range of songbirds. The single biggest reason to buy is its genuinely squirrel-proof design: a weight sensitive perch closes access when a heavier animal climbs on, which saves seed and reduces frustration. The bundle adds a large bag of high-energy, thin-shelled sunflower seed so small birds can feed easily right away.

Key Features

• Squirrel-proof weight sensitive perch: The feeder closes access when a squirrel climbs on, reducing seed loss and long-term replacement costs.
• Cardinal ring included: The attached cardinal ring provides a comfortable feeding spot and encourages cardinals to visit without extra modifications.
• Adjustable and mountable: The tube adjusts and can be pole mounted with a separately sold pole adaptor for flexible placement in a yard.
• 25 lb Wagner black oil sunflower: The included high-energy seed mix is preferred by many bird species and offers immediate refilling so feeding begins without shopping for seed.
• Thin-shelled seed for small birds: The sunflower seed has a thin shell that makes it easy for small birds to access the nutrition they need.
• Lifetime care and support: Brome provides lifetime care and will supply replacement parts if needed, extending the feeder's usable life.

Who It's For

This bundle is best for homeowners and serious backyard birders who want a low-maintenance, long-term solution to squirrel problems and plan to feed a variety of songbirds. It suits people who prefer a ready-to-use package with both feeder and a large quantity of preferred sunflower seed so refills are less frequent.

It is less well suited for casual or occasional feeders who do not want to store 25 lb of seed, or for those who need a complete pole mounting kit included; the pole adaptor is sold separately and may add cost for installations that require pole mounting hardware.
