Product Description

Jake's Farm Yard Tree Spike Hook for Animal Feeders

This Tree Spike Hook allows you to keep food high up in a tree, which will help deter predators and keep the animals safe whilst they are feeding. It will also deter animals from stealing bird seed by making it higher to reach and more difficult for non-flying animals to access.

To install, simply bang the spike into a tree using a hammer or mallet firmly, give it a small tug to ensure that the installation is firm and can withstand the weight of the food and animals that are perched. Then hook the bird feeder through the loop. You can install this on any tree using this method.

The tree spike is delivered with a bare metal finish which will slowly weather over time, giving the product a rustic and aged look. As the product does not directly come into contact with the feed, it will not spoil the animal's feed in any way.

The tree spike has been designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom using heavy-duty British Steel that will remain durable, well into the rusting process.

Rusting Process Explained

At Indoor Outdoors we have many products which we describe as Rustic Steel. This refers to the fact that the item will rust over time to give it that lovely orangey-brown vintage look.

When your product arrives, it may have small patches of rust forming, but it will be in its bare, Mild Steel state. It will be a mostly grey-ish colour. Over time though, as the item is left outside and exposed to the elements, a rusty patina will form on the surface of the steel which gives it that lovely hue. This can take time though, and depends entirely on the outside conditions. Heavy rainfall and bad weather will help it rust faster.

You can speed the rusting process up though, some of our customers have recommended using vinegar, salt or lemon juice on the surface to get that rusty look a little sooner.

Rusting Process for Rustic Steel Products Explained

Want it to rust faster?

Depending on weather conditions, we say it can take anywhere from several weeks, to several months to fully rust. Jason, one of our customers has shared a special tip for achieving that lovely rusty outer in just 2 days!

You can pour equal parts of distilled vinegar and hydrogen peroxide into a spray bottle, along with a 1/4 of a standard cup of salt. Spray this mixture all over the product and it will cause an immediate reaction, rusting in just a matter of days!
