Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What are the most popular bird seeds to use?
A. Black Oil Sunflower Seed is the most popular bird seed. It is much smaller than the traditional sunflower seed and best for those birds with smaller bills, such as the sparrow, junco and goldfinch. This seed is accepted by the greatest variety of birds.
Mixed Seed is also popular. It is best to buy the mixes that contain white proso millet, a tiny cream colored seed with a shiny shell. Mixes containing finely cracked corn and black oil sunflower are also preferred by a large number of birds.
Nyjer (Thistle Seed) is imported from Africa and Asia. Nyjer won’t germinate, however, it has a tendency to become moldy due to lack of air circulation. If you notice mold on the seed, it must be removed from the feeder and the feeder must be cleaned thoroughly.
Q. How do I clean my bird feeders?
A. No/No feeders can be dish washed or hand washed. Before filling your feeders with fresh seed, it is recommended that the following precautions are taken:
Dish washed
Remove all old seed. Place the feeder on top rack of the dish washer. Allow the feeder to dry completely before refilling.
Hand washed
Remove all old seed. Soak feeder in a light water/bleach solution (9 parts water to 1 part bleach). Gently cleanse feeder and allow to air dry.
After the feeder is clean and dry follow these steps
Rake and remove accumulated hulls and droppings from underneath the feeders. Spread mulch (bark or wood) under the feeder, replace mulch when soiled. Thoroughly wash hands after handling and cleaning feeders.
Q. What is the importance of providing water for wild birds?
A. Wild birds need fresh, clean water just as much as they need seed. Birds stay healthy by using water not just for drinking, but also for bathing, cleaning their feathers and to remove parasites. Waterers are better options than bird baths because they provide birds with fresh, clean water that prevents dirt and debris from contaminating it.
In hotter climates or seasons, providing water for birds makes it easy for them to have access to a water source and retain their energy. By adding a water source, you also can attract a larger variety of birds to your yard. You may even attract more colorful birds that don’t eat seed, but are in need of water!

Great Bird Feeder! I purchased this birdfeeder because I liked the style of it, and how the birds can cling to it and pick the seeds out. I enjoy watching birds, so when they cling to it to eat, I get to see them for longer periods of time, as opposed to when they go to the platform feeders, where they are hidden from view.
Superb birdfeeder. This birdfeeder is for anyone who has thieving little squirrels, does not want to fill a feeder every week and wants it to last forever. Best birdfeeder I have every owned and have given several as gifts. It is all metal so it will last forever!!! It is not just for cardinals. Once the birds found it they all came, however, it is difficult for large birds to hang on so smaller varieties will come in droves. I didn’t even know little birds ate sunflower seeds.
Small Bird Heaven At first I wasn’t too impressed with this feeder – it was heavy and when I filled it with black sunflower seeds, they kept falling out. It certainly takes a lot of seeds but the good thing is you don’t have to keep refilling it. It has been there over a week and I still have the bottom half filled. I think it’s because the doves can’t get to it very easily. I hung this from a metal hanger and put a large 16 inch plastic “saucer” (the kind you put under flower pots) drilled with small holes to…
