Bublador 40-Inch Squirrel Spikes & Deterrent for Bird Feeders, Poles, Trees & Roofs

Overview

Meet the Bublador 40-inch Bird and Squirrel Deterrent Spike Strip—designed to create a physical barrier that discourages climbing and access to feeding areas. The design features a distinctive reverse barb construction: each 2-inch spike carries 13 barbs pointing in opposite directions, forming a texture that’s tough for animals to grip or step over. The result is a practical deterrent that blends into outdoor spaces while prioritizing safe, humane use.

How it works

The alternating barb arrangement and sturdy metal build work together to reduce attempts to reach bird food from common routes like poles, trees, and ledges. This description emphasizes deterrence rather than harm, and effectiveness can vary with placement and animal pressure. Install as directed to help create controlled access around your feeders and shelter areas.

Versatile installation options

Designed with flexibility in mind, this deterrent is suitable for a range of outdoor configurations. For bird feeder poles, wrap the spikes downward for 16–20 inches, or use a ring at the top or bottom to prevent crossing. You can also wrap around tree trunks near birdhouses to deter climbing that leads to the feeder itself.

Where it can be used

• On bird feeder poles and rings to help guard the feeding station
• Around tree trunks, branches, and birdhouses to block access
• On drains, fences, railings, air conditioner units, or eaves to deter intruders

Durability and setup

The 40-inch metal strip is built for outdoors, with rust-resistant stainless steel and included mounting hardware for simple installation. Attach with the supplied screws and metal wire, adjusting length as needed. For safety, wear gloves when handling sharp components.
