The Songbird Essentials Squirrel Resistant Suet Palace is a smarter way to feed suet. With its metal plate in place, the protective cage helps keep squirrels, starlings and grackles away from the suet. Hang it high and remove the plate, and large woodpeckers such as flickers, sapsuckers, red-headed, red-bellied and even pileated woodpeckers can cling to the bottom and feed.

Suet Feeding Tips
Two Ways to Use It
Keep the metal plate in when squirrels or starlings are a problem. Hang the feeder high and remove the plate to invite large woodpeckers.
Placement
Hang near mature trees, where woodpeckers naturally forage.
Suet Choices
Use no-melt suet in warm weather and replace any suet that becomes soft or spoiled.
