How do I clean the bird feeder?

Troubleshooting

Birds are not visiting the feeder.

Try moving the feeder to a more visible location, or experiment with different feeder styles. Ensure the suet balls are fresh and not stale.

Squirrels or other pests are eating the suet balls.

Use a squirrel-resistant feeder or a cage around the feeder to deter larger animals. Consider using a feeder with a weight-activated mechanism.
