This is the second squirrel stopper Bird Feeder Pole I have purchased at JCSWildlife. I have had two different bird pole with baffles from Wild Birds Unlimited, and although those poles were good and lasted about 3 years before rusting out and bending beyond use, these poles from JCSWildlife are in a league of their own. They are the best of the best and will hold many more feeders with the weight than anything I’ve found. JCSWildlife is a great company with the best products on the market. I’m a fan of both—JCSWildlife and these Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder Poles. Thanks for your service to your customers and the birds of the air that fill us with wonder and delight.
