What material is the dining station made from?

The dining station is constructed from sturdy metal.

Can I place this on a patio or decking?

While designed to be staked into the ground with its four-pronged fork, it can be used on patios or decking if a suitable, stable method of securing the base is employed, though ground insertion is recommended for optimal stability.

Troubleshooting

Dining station is wobbly or unstable.

Ensure the four-pronged ground fork is pushed as deeply as possible into the soil. If the ground is very hard, loosen the soil slightly or use a mallet to assist insertion. Check that all pole sections are securely fastened.

Birds are not visiting the station.

Ensure a variety of appropriate bird foods are offered. Check that the water dish is clean and filled with fresh water. Birds may take some time to discover a new food source; be patient. Ensure the location is safe and accessible for birds.

Mesh tray is accumulating water or debris.

Clean the mesh tray regularly, ideally daily, especially after rain. Ensure the tray is positioned correctly to allow for drainage. Consider using feeds that are less prone to becoming waterlogged.

Rust or corrosion appearing on metal parts.

While weather-resistant, prolonged exposure to harsh conditions can cause minor surface rust. Clean affected areas with a soft brush and apply a non-toxic, bird-safe sealant or paint if necessary. Ensure proper drainage to minimize water pooling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  2. Assemble the main pole sections if required, typically by screwing them together.
  3. Attach the hook arms and the mesh tray.
  4. Insert the water dish into its designated spot.
  5. Choose a suitable location in your garden, ensuring it is relatively level and away from immediate predator access points.
  6. Firmly push the four-pronged ground fork into the soil. For firmer ground, you may need to loosen the soil slightly beforehand or use a rubber mallet to tap it in gently.
  7. Ensure the station is stable and upright before adding food and water.

Compatibility:

Care:

  • Regularly clean the mesh tray and water dish with warm, soapy water to prevent the spread of disease and maintain hygiene. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry before refilling.
  • Periodically check the stability of the ground fork and the integrity of the metal components.
  • Wipe down the pole and hooks with a damp cloth as needed.
  • Ensure no food debris accumulates around the base of the station.
