Woodlink Squirrel Baffle (Wrap-Around)

4/5 — Our Rating

Our Review

A cone-shaped baffle that wraps around your feeder pole, preventing squirrels from climbing up from below. This is an absolute must-have if you're using pole-mounted feeders. Squirrels hit the baffle, can't get around it, and eventually give up (temporarily).

Why We Love It

We learned the hard way that squirrels can defeat almost anything — but a properly placed baffle really does slow them down. Mount it at least 4 feet high on the pole for best results.

Pros

Actually works when properly placed
Easy to install
Durable powder-coated steel
Fits most standard poles
Affordable

Cons

Only works on poles — not hanging feeders
Squirrels can still jump from above
Must be mounted high enough to work

Our Tip

Mount the baffle at least 4 feet above the ground AND at least 10 feet from any surface a squirrel could jump from (fence, tree, roof).
