A: To attach or hang the Royal Wing 3 lb. Cedar Squirrel Feeder, follow these methods based on your preferred location: 1. Mount Directly to a Tree or Post This is the most common way to secure a cedar feeder so squirrels can easily climb onto it. Predrill Pilot Holes: Cedar wood is prone to splitting. Always predrill small pilot holes in the back mounting plate of the feeder before driving in screws. Secure with Screws: Use 2-1/2-inch galvanized deck screws to attach the feeder through the predrilled holes directly into a tree trunk or wooden post. Placement Height: For optimal squirrel activity and visibility, mount it between 4 to 5 feet off the ground. 2. Hang from a Branch or Hook If you prefer not to screw into a tree, you can suspend the feeder. Use a Chain or Cable: Attach heavy-duty screw hooks to the top of the feeder. Loop a metal chain or cable through these hooks and around a sturdy tree branch. Cable Ties (Zip Ties): For a non-permanent and tree-friendly option, loop thick, UV-resistant nylon cable ties through the feeder's attachment points and around the branch. This prevents bark damage that metal wires might cause
