Bird Guardian Birdhouse Protector

This immediately made my annual nesting bluebird worries disappear. Lots of squirrels and a particular neighbor’s cat have always shown interest after the nest was established and this little gadget replaced my primitive attempt to secure their nest and the birds did not ever seem to notice. A little pricey but the quality and reviews were good.

Great product. Well made, small and easy install.

Product seems to be well made and was accepted by the birds in the house without a problem

I ignored bad reviews saying this product did not work. When we lived in our last house, all of our bird houses had these attached and all of the houses were occupied. Bluebirds, chickadees, tufted titmice…none of the birds seemed to pay any attention to the guard. So we moved and bought new bird houses. We did not buy guards because what was once $6 is now $13 and we have about 12 bird houses. We have a game cam set up to watch the progress of our bluebirds. This is how we knew the baby bluebirds had fledged. A few days after they were gone, the video showed a raccoon all over the bluebird house one night. His nose went into the entrance as far as possible. His little paws would have easily pulled out eggs or baby birds. Since another pair of bluebirds was interested in the now empty house, we put a guard that we had never used on the bluebird house. This was about the same time I ordered these guards. As soon as we put the guard on the bluebird house, the bluebirds stopped coming to the birdhouse! I decided to return the two guards I had ordered and received, but had not opened. We took the guard off the bluebird house. It’s taken several days, but this morning the bluebird couple is again considering the birdhouse. I gave a 3 rating because these guards had worked before. I have no idea why the birds would not even get near the birdhouse.

This is a must have for your bluebird nesting boxes. I put it on one of my nesting boxes that I had painted camouflage. The predator guard color was perfect with the camouflage. I have predator birds, squirrels and raccoons around that go reaching but won’t be able to with this in place. The screws were included in the box.

This was easy to put on, and it prevented the Blue Jays from going into the sparrow’s birdhouse. In fact, they didn’t even give it a try after that lol

It was easy to install, but it has been installed for a month and no bird will use the birdhouse. Last year I lost 3 nests in it to predators & hoped this would work. However, instead they built their nest in my hanging fern & a hawk ate all the babies today yanking the nest out of the fern. I wish they were not afraid of this protector.

Keeps the critters out. Works well
