Cleaning your bird feeder
To prevent the spread of infections among garden birds, it is very important to clean your
bird feeder on a regular basis. Bacteria and fungal spores can develop quickly on bird
feeders, bird tables and in bird baths, so regular cleaning can help prevent this. Please also
move your bird feeder around the garden to prevent a build up of disease in any one area.
How to clean your bird feeder
1.
Wearing rubber gloves, empty the feeder and dispose of the content in a bin. Do not
reuse the food or compost it.
2.
Thoroughly clean the feeder with a brush in hot soapy water. Ensure all residual
food and droppings are removed.
3.
Rinse the feeder with cold water from an outside tap and leave to stand to dry
completely.
4.
Finally, spray the feeder with a veterinary disinfectant, which should kill any
remaining infections. Rinse the feeder again and allow to dry naturally before
refilling.
