Yes, it is designed for year-round feeding to support birds throughout the different demands of the seasons.
It is specifically formulated to attract finches, tits, and sparrows.
No, you should store it in a cool, dry place indoors or in a weatherproof shed to maintain the quality of the seeds and fats.
Yes, this mix is suitable for ground feeding, though it is recommended to use a bird table or tray to keep the food away from the mud.
It is best practice to clean your feeders every two weeks to maintain hygiene and prevent the spread of avian diseases.
Birds may take time to discover new food. Ensure the feeder is in a visible, quiet area and be patient, especially during seasonal transitions.
The seeds have likely absorbed moisture. Empty the feeder, clean and dry the interior, and ensure the feeder is placed under a baffle or roof to keep rain out.
You may have attracted too many non-target species or squirrels. Consider using a squirrel-proof feeder or a weight-activated feeder to regulate access.
Setting up your bird feeding station requires minimal equipment. Simply pour the 4kg blend into your feeder of choice, ensuring the container is clean and dry first. Because this mix contains fats and oils, it is vital to store the bag in a cool, dark, and dry environment. Always keep the packaging sealed tightly to protect the seeds from dampness, which can lead to clumping or spoilage. Keep the storage area out of reach of children and pets. Regular maintenance of your feeding hardware—typically rinsing with mild detergent and water—is recommended every two weeks to prevent mold growth.
