Troubleshooting

Birds are not eating the peanuts.

Ensure the feeder is clean and accessible. Check if other food sources are more readily available. Try moving the feeder to a slightly different location. Some birds may take time to discover a new food source.

Squirrels are consuming the peanuts.

Use a squirrel-proof feeder designed with specific mechanisms to deter squirrels, or place feeders on poles with baffles.

Peanuts appear moldy.

This can happen if the peanuts get wet. Ensure feeders are protected from rain and clean them thoroughly. Store uneaten peanuts in a dry location. Remove and discard any moldy food immediately.

Feeder is blocked.

Check for clumps of food or debris. Gently shake the feeder. If necessary, remove all food, clean the feeder, and refill.
