We have a plastic squirrel proof dome that is mounted on top of our bird feeder. Is there enough space from the pole for this to work?

Yes. We love ours. It is amazingly strong. Holds our very heavy feeder full of seed & birds!
642312
Depends on how big around the dome is... but I would suspect there is though you may need hang the feeder / dome a foot or so down from the hook at the end on a cord or chain so there is enough space for the dome. BTW - Squirrels need to eat too!

Hi..maybe not..depending on diameter of the dome. It could work if you hung it a bit lower like from a chain. If your deck is high enough off the ground it would still be hard for them to get to. We use ours for the suet feeder..mostly to keep the crafty raccoons from getting at it, and so far it's working :-)

I can not give you a definitive answer. We use the Green Esteem pole for our hummingbird feeder. Squirrels do not bother it.

I bought this bird feeder and bought a standard size bird feeder pole, I am not sure of the dimensions.

I guess it would depend on how big the rat is. Just to be sure, I would mount your feeder on the Green Esteem 60500 36-Inch Extended Reach Wall Pole, and then attach the Aspects 182 Super Dome......Hope this helps.

yes you can however the prong are not extremly stable so i would not get over a 12 inch bird house. Mine works well for my 12"X6" feeder. Just screw it to the bottom.

Sorry, but that will not work. The tray is designed to fit on the bottom of a feeder hanging from a pole. Good luck.

I'm not sure what the question is. There is a small (about 1/2 inch) hole in the bottom, but I don't think it was ever meant to take a pole sturdy enough to hold that feeder up. The feeder is heavy. I hang mine from a tree, but a external metal rig with an arm that would allow it to hang certainly will work.

As you can see in the graphic, the feeder is suspended under the dome. I would think a 4 sided feeder would work fine unless it is unusually large. I first purchased the small dome, but then purchased the large dome, and it is much more satisfactory for my needs. I hope this helps. Blessings. navydoc

You definitely want to place it high enough so that the squirrels can't jump on top of it. Mine is on a double shepherd's hook and is about three feet off the ground. The squirrels can't jump on top of it and when they climb up the pole they can't get around the baffle to get to the feeders. It works great.

Hi, the feeder has a space at the center of the bottom of it that extends inward about 1 1/4" with a diameter maybe 1/2" or so. I would assume that is exactly what it is made to do. I do not think bracket mounting would be a great idea, but might work if doesn't bend the metal base which screws onto the clear plastic. I just tried a metal rod for size while the feeder was totally full and there were no problems or damage. Keep in mind that the top must come off to add the seed, and after a few birds the feeder will be bottom heavy anyway(that's good for pole mounting). I hope this helps. later Hi, the feeder has a space at the center of the bottom of it that extends inward about 1 1/4" with a diameter maybe 1/2" or so.

The NATORPEDO is designed to work on a birdpole - not sure how functional it would be for a bird feeder on a wire. I have other feeders with a dome over the top and that works pretty well. If you use the largest diameter dome with your feeder underneath, it will keep the seeds dry from bad weather (rain, snow, etc) keep out the Starlings (they don't like to go under it) ... and the squirrels don't seem to be able to hang on to reach under to grab the feeder. The dome I use is the 'Aspects 182 Super Dome.' It's 18" in diameter and works great!

There may be enough room but I wouldn't. You are going to want good circulation in the feeder to ensure you don't get any mold. Zero issues with squirrels or other nuisance birds. Highly recommend. Food went from lasting one to three days to almost a month.

The dome is really used to be hung from above and a feeder below. There are other products that can be used on a pole to stop any rodents from climbing

If you are trying to keep squirrels out of your bird feed, I would set the pole collar at 4 feet above the ground.

It probably doesn't matter. As long as it will fit the pole you want to attach it too. Mine are about 3-1/2 feet off the ground on shepherds hooks.Recently a squirrel has managed to leap straight up from the ground to grab onto the bottom of my bird feeder and defeat the anti-squirrel ring altogether. I've seen him do this several times. I've looked for taller shepherds hooks, but no one appears to make anything taller.

It hangs easily with the included hanging device. My experience with using it either hanging or pole mounted is the necessity of a squirrel baffle to keep those pesky critters from figuring out how to empty the feeder. Good luck.

No. Can be hung from crook pole, wire line etc. your own feeder attaches under the dome, dome hangs from above.

You may need a little collar on the pole to keep the feeder from going more than a few inches onto the pole. Otherwise it would be hard to remove for filling.
