- Description
Feed garden birds safely and confidently with the Defender Guardian Peanut Feeder, a practical and robust solution designed to protect peanuts from squirrels and larger birds.
Peanuts are a firm favourite with many garden species and provide a rich source of protein and oils to support birds throughout the year. This purpose-built feeder features a wide protective cage to deter unwanted visitors, allowing smaller birds to feed in peace.
Built for durability, the feeder combines a tough, powder-coated steel cage with a sturdy plastic base and a hard-wearing metal lid. A wire mesh base promotes effective drainage, helping keep peanuts fresher for longer. The feeder can be quickly dismantled without tools, making regular cleaning simple and stress-free.
Versatile in use, it can be hung from a branch or hook, mounted on a feeder pole (sold separately), or placed free-standing in a suitable area of the garden.
