FAQs
How often should I refill the feeder?
Refill the feeder as needed, depending on how quickly the birds are consuming the nuts. Regular refills ensure a consistent food supply.
Are these peanuts safe for all types of birds?
These peanuts are suitable for a wide variety of garden birds, particularly members of the Tit family. Always use a wire mesh feeder for safety.
How long will a 650G pack last?
The duration will vary depending on the number of birds visiting and their consumption rate. It is best to monitor how quickly birds are consuming and adjust refills accordingly.
Can I use these peanuts in a regular bird feeder?
No. These monkey nuts must be used in a wire mesh feeder, which prevents choking hazards and promotes natural foraging.
How do I store the peanuts?
Store the peanuts in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, and in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
What if my peanuts arrive damaged?
Contact the retailer or Johnston and Jeff customer support for assistance.
How often should I clean the feeder?
Clean the feeder at least once a week, or more frequently if needed, to remove old food and prevent the spread of disease.
Troubleshooting
Birds are not visiting the feeder.
Relocate the feeder to a more visible and sheltered location. Ensure the feeder is clean and the peanuts are fresh.
The nuts are becoming moldy.
Ensure the nuts are stored properly in a dry, cool place and that the feeder is cleaned regularly. Replace any nuts that show signs of mold.
Squirrels are accessing the feeder.
Use a squirrel-resistant feeder or relocate the feeder to a less accessible area. Consider a baffle to deter squirrels.
