The store is great! They have everything one could want to have a backyard bird sanctuary. The person who waited on me (Jerry) was awesome...patient and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

Went there to purchase one of their *hummingbird feeders*. Very professional staff member, didn't try to sell more than I needed. And a hummingbird showed up right the next day, BTW. ☺

Questions & Answers

Yes we do.

How do I keep squirrels away from my bird feeder?

Try offering them their own feeding station with their favorite foods like corn or nuts. Use a squirrel-proof bird feeder, like the Eliminator. Place a baffle on your feeder pole. Use dome baffles above bird feeders. Try an OnGuard™ wire mesh cage around your existing feeders to keep squirrels from reaching the food. Fill your bird feeders with safflower seeds, many songbirds will eat safflower, but squirrels typically won't.

How do I stop birds from hitting my window?

Here are a few options: Set up a window feeder, it will keep the birds safe from striking the window and provide close views of them feeding. If your feeding station is in the direct vicinity of a window, move it to within three feet of the window. Install window screens. Decals and stained-glass decorations are moderately successful. Hanging vertical exterior tape stripes across the window at 4 inches (10 cm) intervals.

I put out a new feeder and the birds are not eating from it, when will they find it?

After installing a new feeder it can take a day or a number of weeks before the birds will readily take to it even if it replaces an existing feeder. Patience is key when birds are getting used to a new feeder. Birds generally find their food by sight. Placing your feeder where it will be visible to them should decrease the time it takes for birds to start feeding. Sprinkling some food on the ground or on top of the feeder can help, too.

I found a baby bird, what should I do?

Wild Birds Unlimited | Aug 20, 2021

The best thing to do if you find a baby bird is to leave it alone. If the bird appears as though it has fallen from a nest, an attempt to locate the nest can be made, and the bird can be carefully returned. If the bird has feathers, it may be a fledged bird and a parent bird is probably close by. It is best to watch the bird from a distance to see if a parent returns after an hour or so before determining that the bird needs human help.

All the shells have been removed from the seed and it has no fillers of any type. It is primarily sunflower seeds, diced peanuts and hulled millet, it was specifically blended for Southern California birds. Call with any questions or drop on by to get a free sample of our No Mess.

Would the squirrel buster feeder also work for raccoons?

Galli | Aug 21, 2018
David J Henkel | Aug 21, 2018

Both are really persistent critters but I think it would be a good deterant to any raccoons efforts.
