The squirrels and raccoons had been outwitting the dome baffle that I had been using on our pole mounted platform bird feeder since shortly after I put it up. In researching solutions I had considered fabricating my own baffle out of stovepipe. Found this Audubon Torpedo baffle on Amazon for just under $20 so I thought I'd give it a try. I figured that the materials to build my own could cost nearly that much, not to mention my time. The NATORPEDO arrived very quickly and I was very impressed by its quality, fit and finish. Was anxious to give it a try but first had to repair the feeder that the fat raccoons had damaged from climbing on. Once that was done I mounted the new torpedo baffle on the pole about 3 1/2 feet off the ground and remounted the feeder tray, filled with black oiled sunflower seeds. So far it's been up a week and has been "baffling" the squirrels and raccoons. My only concern was that at about 16 1/2 inches long it might not be long enough to deter the raccoons, but so far it's doing the job. Wish I would have tried it much sooner! The birds are happier and I'm going through a lot less sunflower seeds and corn! I am so happy with this purchase that I'm going to buy at least one more. It's a very nice baffle and much more affordable than most of the similar products out there.
Made well, good quality, does the job.
Several things to be aware of: no instructions but if you're even a little imaginative you'll figure out how it mounts to the pole. A cable tie was supplied, to secure the clamp to the cone, but the manufacturer "closed the loop" so it had to be cut off and replaced with a new one. I found that there wasn't enough friction between the pole and the metal clamp to support the cone. I cut up an old piece of rubber and placed the pieces inside the clamp, between it and the pole. Otherwise, the cone just slowly slid down the pole as the day wore on. Especially when it started raining.
We're going to add a small mirror inside the cone just to see how the little beggers reacte!
Cheap entertainment!
UPDATE: I just bought another one.
