FAQs
How do I attach the feeder to the window?
Clean the window, moisten the three suction cups, and press them firmly onto the glass from the outside. Ensure it is secure before filling.
What kind of birdseed should I use?
This feeder is suitable for standard birdseed mixes. Smaller seeds like sunflower hearts, millet, and cracked corn work well. Avoid very large or oily seeds.
How often do I need to refill the feeder?
The refill frequency depends on the number of birds visiting. The capacity is 225ml, so check it daily and refill as needed, especially during peak feeding times.
Can I place the feeder inside the house?
The feeder is designed to be attached to the *outside* of the window to allow birds access while you watch from inside.
How do I clean the bird feeder?
Empty old seed, wash with warm, soapy water, rinse well, and let it dry completely before refilling. Regular cleaning prevents disease.
What are the dimensions of the feeder?
The feeder measures 15cm in length, 15cm in width, and 6cm in depth.
Will the suction cups hold in cold weather?
Suction cup performance can be affected by extreme cold. It's recommended to check their adhesion periodically, especially during winter months, and reapply if necessary.
Troubleshooting
Feeder falls off the window
Ensure the window surface is clean and dry. Moisten the suction cups slightly before reattaching. Check for extreme temperature fluctuations that might affect suction.
Birds are not visiting
Ensure the feeder is filled with appropriate birdseed. Birds may need time to discover the new food source. Try placing it in a location with more visibility or closer to trees/shrubs.
Seed is getting wet or clumping
The feeder is designed for external use, but heavy rain may still affect the seed. Ensure the feeder is positioned under an overhang if possible. Clean out any damp or moldy seed immediately.
