FAQ's

What is the best all-round wild bird food?

A nutrient-packed wild bird mix is a great all-rounder for most small birds, though larger birds may have difficulty with these feeders – peanuts are a great alternative to suit the larger wild birds in your area!

Can old bird food hurt birds?

Old bird food isn’t tempting to wild birds and can start growing mould which can harm any birds that do try to eat it.

Do birds eat wet bird food?

If wet bird food overstays its welcome, it is also likely to grow mouldy, harming birds. When providing wild bird food, like setting dinner for your guests, make sure it is dry and fresh.
