1 / 6Jacobi Jayne Squirrel Buster SB-1057 Hanging Seed Feeder
Jacobi Jayne Squirrel Buster SB-1057 is a hanging feeder for mixed seeds, with a spring-loaded shroud that the listing says closes access when a squirrel's weight presses it down. Its 0.75-litre capacity and 33.5 cm height suit a garden feeding point, but the squirrel-exclusion claim is a manufacturer claim rather than a guaranteed outcome.
