$69.95The PGS Pole Guard (Climbing Animal Barrier) for 2” SQUARE Poles will fit the 2-inch-square Deluxe Gourd Rack poles. Improved! Now with snake sniffer holes!

It mounts on the pole below the rope winder and stays on the pole. You don't take it down to check the nests, but the rope winder has to be high enough to accommodate it and give ground clearance so a raccoon can't jump on on the top of it and shinny up the pole to eat the baby birds. This predator guard does not require removal prior to conducting a nest check because it is mounted below the lanyard cleat. SHIPPING: Shipping price shown is approximate.
