Deluxe 12 Gourd Rack Combo (DGR12Combo)

Includes the Deluxe 12 Unit Gourd Rack. Also included with the Deluxe 12 Gourd Rack Combo are 12 Troyer Horizontal gourds, the Standard Pole Guard Square and a Tunnel Trap.

The Troyer Horizontal Gourd:

Durable: Troyer Gourds are blow-molded in white (sun-reflecting), opaque, high-density polyethylene plastic. They won't rot, peel, split, or crack out in the elements, and won't break if accidentally dropped like natural gourds can. Because they are molded with ultraviolet inhibitors added to the plastic, they have a long life expectancy with virtually no maintenance other than giving a quick scrub at the end of the season. The Troyer Tunnel is injection-molded using opaque UV-inhibited plastic.

Easy to Hang: Troyer Gourds can easily be hung underneath an existing martin house or from an any of the gourd racks we offer. No need to drill a hanging hole, they come pre-drilled with a 3/8" hanging-hole. Fully Assembled.

Designed to benefit the Purple Martin: The Troyer Horizontal Gourd reduces the risk of owl predation, due to its overall length of 14-½". The tunnel is trap-compatible for trapping House Sparrows with the optional Troyer-Haskell Tunnel Trap. The extra-wide porch on the gourds give martins a place to lounge in the sun and the inner tunnels now have a wing-entrapment guard and traction tread. Each gourd has an additional perch area with traction on the Tunnel and comes with a pre-drilled 3/8”, front-to-back hanging hole. Gourds have high occupancy rates, plus reduce the incidence of fallouts and premature fledging. Now, busy landlords can offer their martins all the advantages of properly-prepared gourds, without investing the time and effort required to grow natural gourds, then add access doors and canopies, or repaint them every year or so.

Pole Guard Square:

24 inches long with a 7-½ inch diameter tube.
The guard installs around the pole, no need to remove the house.
Aluminum bracket is mounted below your rope winder
Stainless hardware
Includes snake sniffer holes!

Tunnel Trap:

Made from a heavy-weight aluminum and powder coated this two-piece trap fits ALL Troyer Tunnels.
Features two peak-out holes.
It traps English House Sparrows and last but not least - it also lets you capture the Purple Martin for band reading or for whatever reason.
The trap includes a powder coated aluminum shutter door and trip-wire.

Deluxe 12 Gourd Rack:

Features: It features a four-part pulley system for easy raising and lowering. The gourd arms slip easily in and out of the all-aluminum, assembled hub, which has nylon glide tabs for squeak-free operation. Also included; twelve 3/8” high-strength aluminum arms; 45-feet of polyester rope; an aluminum rope cleat; and a 2-inch-square aluminum pole assembly with a plastic pyramid pole cap and two solid 3/8" top perch rods.

Materials: Aluminum pole, aluminum ground stake, aluminum hub brackets, assembled to aluminum angle sides using stainless steel hardware. Twelve high-strength 3/8" aluminum gourd arms.

Dimensions: Two-inch square high-tensile strength two-piece aluminum pole and stands 14-feet above the ground when installed. Square poles are superior in strength to round martin poles.

Gourd Arms: Twelve 3/8" solid aluminum horizontal arms. Arms for "Deluxe" style gourd racks have a 90-degree bend on the end that slips into the hub bracket. There are three configurations; straight that slip into the single hole on the hub bracket, and left and right, which are paired in an adjacent side of the hub. The horizontal gourd arms have a drilled hole at the end of the arm. Slip your gourd onto the arm and insert your supplied stainless hitch pin. The pin will keep your gourd from falling off.

Gourd Accommodation: Any plastic or natural gourd can be fitted to these horizontal-style gourd arms. If your gourds are not already drilled front to back in the upper neck, use a 13/32" drill bit to enlarge the hanging holes. Horizontal gourd-hanging arms are perfect for the Troyer Horizontal gourds!

Four-part pulley system: Each of the pulleys carries a 1/4 of the load. If your 12 gourds and hub weigh a total of 40 pounds, you are pulling around 10 pounds. Always wear a good pair of grippy gloves when raising or lowering any gourd rack.
