How to avoid common mistakes when feeding birds

Clean Feeders:

Wet feed can quickly become mouldy, spreading disease to birds and even effecting an entire neighbourhood flock. Our rain guard protects feeders, whatever the weather and help reduce the risk of soggy, spoiled feed. Our range of accessories can also prevent food falling onto the ground where it can easily become damp and spoil. Wild birds can be fussy customers and won’t appreciate dirty feeding stations. A dirty feeder can become clogged creating conditions where feed can spoil. All our feeding accessories are easy to clean and maintain.  

Squirrels:

Birds can be scared away from their feeders by the presence of squirrels who are attracted to many of the nuts and seeds in bird food. Our squirrel protectors and squirrel proof feeders are the perfect deterrent for persistent squirrels, rodents and larger birds which can intimidate smaller, more timid species.  

Irregular feeding:

Birds will return if a feeder is empty for a few days but numbers may dwindle if your feeders remain empty for long periods. Being creatures of habit birds will more readily return to a guaranteed, high quality food source. Regularly refilling feeders will attract a wider variety of birds in every season and will help keep the feeder clean and in good repair. Don’t worry if your feeders have been neglected. Once you re-establish a feeding routine, it won’t take long for word to spread and bird numbers increase.
