Niger seeds are small in size which smaller birds such as finches, tits, wrens and other birds that already visit your garden find extremely palatable.
*As Niger seeds are so small we recommend using a Niger/Thistle seed feeder as typical bird feeders have much larger holes meaning a lot of this seed could be wasted.*

Feeding tips
Hang bird feeders far enough off the ground and away from fences to discourage cats. Once you have started feeding the birds try to be consistent with filling up your feeding stations. The birds in and around your garden will come to rely on the food that you put out for them. Use a quiet area to feed the birds so that they are comfortable and relaxed. It is always a good idea to provide clean, fresh water. Cleaning feeders, bird tables, baths and water dishes regularly is a great way to maintain hygiene in the area. This will prevent infections and the spread of germs.
