Deer Feeder Varmint Guard – Raccoon & Squirrel Proof

Stop Raccoons from Emptying Your Feeder

Spin-Cast Varmint Guard – Feeder Protection

If you’ve ever walked up to a feeder that was full yesterday and empty today, you already know the problem.

Raccoons don’t just eat your feed—they hang on the spinner and dump it all night long. That means wasted corn, dead batteries, and burned-up motors.

This guard stops that.

What This Actually Does

The Spin-Cast Varmint Guard creates a physical barrier around your spinner and control unit so varmints can’t reach it—no matter how hard they try.

• No more coons spinning your plate all night
• No more squirrels chewing wires
• No more feeders running nonstop

Your feeder goes back to doing what it’s supposed to do: feeding on schedule only.

Why It Pays for Itself Fast

Most feeders can lose:

• 50–100 lbs of corn in a week to raccoons

That adds up fast.

This guard typically pays for itself in 1–2 weeks of saved feed.

Built for Real-World Use

• 14" x 14" x 14" steel cage – strong, compact, and effective
• 1.5" grid spacing – blocks raccoons while maintaining proper feed throw
• Front + bottom access doors – easy timer adjustment and maintenance
• Universal fit – works with most 55-gallon barrel feeders
• Includes mounting hardware – no guesswork installation
• Made in the USA

Designed Smarter Than Typical Guards

Most cages are bulky, hard to access, or a pain to install.

This one is built for actual use in the field:

• Square design = faster mounting
• Dual doors = no removing the cage just to adjust your timer
• Tight footprint = doesn’t interfere with feed pattern

What to Expect

• Raccoons will try—and fail
• Feed loss will drop immediately
• Battery life improves
• Motor and timer last longer

Important Fit Note

• Designed for 55-gallon barrel-style feeders

Bottom Line

If you have raccoons, this isn’t optional—it’s protection.

Without it, you’re feeding varmints.
With it, you’re feeding deer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this stop raccoons from emptying my feeder?

Yes. This guard blocks access to the spinner plate and control unit, which is how raccoons dump feed. They can climb on the cage, but they can’t reach or spin the plate.

Does it work for squirrels too?

It significantly reduces squirrel damage, especially chewing on wires and timers. Very small squirrels may still attempt to reach through the grid, but they won’t be able to operate the spinner.

Will it affect how the feed throws?

No. The cage is designed with enough spacing to allow proper feed dispersion while still preventing access to the spinner.

Will this fit my feeder?

It’s designed for most 55-gallon barrel-style deer feeders.
If you’re running a smaller hanging feeder or compact unit, fitment may be limited.

Can I still access my timer and battery?

Yes. The front and bottom access doors allow you to adjust your timer, change batteries, and perform maintenance without removing the guard.

Is installation difficult?

No. The guard includes mounting hardware and installs directly to your feeder. Most setups take only a few minutes with basic tools.

What is it made of?

Heavy-duty steel construction designed to hold up in outdoor conditions and resist damage from animals.

Will raccoons damage the guard?

They’ll try, but this type of cage is specifically designed to withstand typical raccoon behavior like pulling, climbing, and shaking.

Do I really need a varmint guard?

If you have raccoons, yes. Without a guard, feeders can lose large amounts of corn in a single night, and constant spinning can drain batteries and wear out motors.

Will this work with 6V and 12V feeders?

Yes. The guard is not voltage-specific—it protects the spinner and control unit regardless of your feeder’s power setup.

Is this made in the USA?

Yes.
