HOW IT WORKS

Openings in the shroud align with the feeding ports, providing birds access to the food. When a squirrel climbs onto the feeder, its weight automatically forces the shroud down, closing access to the ports. Squirrels and some large birds are foiled but not harmed in any way.

Classic removable perch

FEATURES

REMOVABLE PERCHES

The Squirrel Buster Finch can be converted into a clinging feeder only, by removing the perches. The absence of perches will help deter large nuisance birds from using the feeder.

FOR BOTH PERCHING AND CLINGING BIRDS

The seed ports have perches for perching birds and the wire shroud provides a surface area for clinging birds. This increases your bird traffic.

The Squirrel Buster Finch has 8 seed ports: 4 with perches and 4 without.

NEGATIVE GRIP TUBE

The Negative Grip Tube prevents squirrels from grabbing the hanger with their hind legs, hanging down alongside the feeder and defeating the closing mechanism.

CLEANING YOUR FEEDER

  • Frequency of cleaning varies according to climate.
  • Heavy bird traffic can increase the frequency of cleaning
  • Washing by Hand. Wear Gloves!
  • Dismantle and discard any accumulation of wild bird food.
  • Wash by hand in warm soapy water and/or in 1/10 bleach solution.
  • Make sure all components are completely dry before assembling.
  • Warning: Bird droppings contain contaminants. Avoid skin contact.

LIFETIME CARE

No tools

BROME BIRD NEWS

NEED FOR CLEARANCE

Remember it’s a squirrel’s weight that triggers the closing mechanism. If a squirrel can reach over from a nearby foothold and avoid placing his weight on the feeder, he can access the birdseed. To overcome this problem, allow for at least 18 in/47 cm of clearance around the feeder. This will force the squirrel to climb onto the feeder and trigger the closing mechanism.

BROME CARE

Should you need a part covered under our Brome Care, we will happily provide it to extend the life of our products.

NO TOOLS REQUIRED

All our bird feeders are designed to be dismantled by hand into individual components without the use of tools. This allows for easy cleaning and maintenance.

BIRDS THAT ENJOY NYJER SEED

1016 birds

ABOUT NYJER SEED

Nyjer is an oily tasty seed that, unfortunately, dries out too fast in hot dry conditions or goes bad when exposed to moisture. When buying Nyjer, check that its color is still shiny and black. Brownish and dull-looking seeds are no longer fresh, and birds won’t touch them. Purchase only enough to last you no more than several weeks.

Product Description

Product Description

The Squirrel Buster Finch Bird Feeder is designed to keep squirrels at bay while attracting beautiful finches to your backyard. With 4 metal perches and 8 feeding ports, it accommodates multiple birds simultaneously. The 2.4-pound seed capacity ensures you won't have to refill frequently.

Amazon.com

Squirrel-proof bird feeder holds 1.4 quarts of bird seed. view larger Attracts a wide variety of both clinging and perching birds. view larger Patented Seed Tube Ventilation System helps seed remain fresher and attracts more birds. Negative grip tube prevents squirrels from circumventing the closing mechanism.

Brome 1016 Squirrel Buster Finch

Equipped with patented Squirrel Buster technology, this Brome 1016 Squirrel Buster Finch feeder offers an innovative design that attracts birds while keeping squirrels at bay. The bird feeder holds 1.4 quarts of bird seed, whether it's Black Oil sunflower seed (a good all-round birdseed) or other seed blends specific to your area.

The squirrel-proof bird feeder attracts a wide variety of clinging and perching birds including the American Gold Finch, the Chickadee, the Indigo Bunting, and the Purple Finch. The unit features a specialized nyjer/mix feeder for high-quality performance, and its innovative design means that eight birds can feed at the same time.

Squirrel-Proof / Chew-Proof

Openings in the wire shroud align with seed ports and provide birds access to the seed. When a squirrel climbs onto the feeder, its weight automatically forces the shroud down, closing access to the seed ports. All squirrels and many large birds are blocked from accessing the food, but are not harmed in any way.

The Closing Mechanism

The spring mechanism is calibrated at the factory to close at 4 ounces (115 g). The smaller red squirrels, as well as the larger gray squirrels, are shut out at this setting.

Negative Grip Tube

The bird feeder features a negative grip tube that prevents squirrels from grabbing the wire hanger with their hind legs and hanging alongside the feeder, defeating the closing mechanism.

Seed-Level Indicator

The bottom of the yellow center post cap marks the maximum seed level. Filling past this mark will impede the shroud from closing. Do not fill past this mark.

Patented Seed Tube Ventilation System

Transparent seed tubes are like greenhouses; they trap solar energy. Traditional seed tube cover designs block the escape of heated air. The patented Seed Tube Ventilation System in the Squirrel Buster Finch permits humidity and warm air to escape through vents at the top of the feeder. The escaping air is replaced by fresh air entering through the seed ports. The result: seed remains fresher and attracts more birds.

Place the Feeder Almost Anywhere

Position your feeder just about anywhere--without having to worry about those pesky squirrels. Hang the Squirrel Buster Finch over a window, in a tree, on a deck or fence, in your garden, on the side of your house, from a rain gutter, or over sliding doors to get great close-up views of your favorite birds. The bird feeder hangs easily with the use of a wall bracket, extension hook, or branch hook (sold separately).

Easy to Fill and Clean

The Squirrel Buster Finch dismantles for convenient filling, and cleans up easily by hand. Do not put it in the dishwasher; it is not dishwasher-safe.

Excellent Quality Feeder - Brome Wins Every Time
5 Stars
Excellent Quality Feeder - Brome Wins Every Time
Excellent bird feeder for finches and their kind. The occasional chickadee will hop in as well if the pine siskins give them a chance or any room.Squirrels don't tend to bother my finch feeders as much, but since the spot I have this one is fairly easily accessible for them, it doesn't hurt. Should help a lot if I decide to switch out the thistle seed for fine-chipped sunflower which I often do.I had a very small finch feeder (the wire mesh type) in this location before, and quite literally this new Brome feeder was covered in Pine Siskins in less than 5 minutes of me filling and placing it here.No clue what other reviewers here are on about when they state that birds won't feed from it - my guess is they're not terribly experienced with feeders in general and perhaps don't understand the specifics of this type of feeder. Photo as proof is attached ---- in less than a day I've had *countless* siskins and a few visiting purple finch as well. Still waiting for some gold finches this year - hope they find us - and hope the darn sassy siskins give up a little bit of space for everyone else. They are ornery!
