Frequently asked questions

What does the PestOff Starling Proof Cage do?

It fits over a Roamwild PestOff feeder and stops starlings, magpies, jackdaws, parakeets and even deer feeding from it, while small songbirds pass through the cage and feed freely.

Which feeders does it fit?

It is compatible with all Roamwild PestOff feeders. The feeder is sold separately.

Can small birds still feed with the cage on?

Yes. The cage spacing lets songbirds such as tits, finches and robins through while keeping larger birds out.

What is it made of and how big is it?

It is an all-metal cage measuring 33 × 33 × 15.5 cm.

Is it easy to fit and remove?

Yes. It installs easily over the feeder and can be taken off again whenever you need.

Does it stop squirrels too?

Its job is blocking starlings and large birds; the PestOff feeder's own baffles and spring-loaded ports handle squirrels.

Unit was awkward to fit and required 2 people. Took the wee birds about 1 week before they started to use it. I love watching the pigeons trying to get into it......lol. Overall, a good piece of kit.

I was having trouble with a flock of starlings arriving every day, eating all the seed and pecking the little birds when they came near. The starling cage has made all the difference, and the little birds love it!

Disappointed in the cage - whilst it bolts together well, the grid access holes are too small to allow sparrows and robins to gain access and I fear that I will have to cut the cage grid in order that they can access, unless you have a larger cage grid that you could send?

Brilliant cage! It instantly stopped the parakeets and starlings from raiding the seeds.The tits and sparrows can finally enjoy the seeds. Unfortunately, the robins are just too big for the holes in the cage and they cannot feed. It would be perfect if the holes size was 15 mm bigger to allow the robins to feed too. Nevertheless, a great product. Thank you, Michael

I fitted mine by mistake to the tube not the green metal, the video is too quick to follow so it is not quite as simple as stated, I think Roamwild could improve on this - but happily it doesn't matter, 4 or 5 little songbirds at a time immediately flew in, feeding in turns and love it.

The problem now is I only see it free of birds at dusk - so I am still filling up almost daily!!

A great purchase.

Does what it says on the tin!
Our small birds love it and have grown in confidence. The cage keeps starlings and squirrels at bay ( they can be fed from different feeders). Our sunflower seeds last all week now instead of being cleared at dawn!
