Know before you buy
This platform feeder is versatile and works well with most seed types, including black oil sunflower seeds, safflower, cracked corn, or mixed blends. Because it is an open-platform style, it is also an excellent choice for offering mealworms or suet nuggets.
The expanded mesh screen is designed for drainage rather than seed retention. If you are using very small seeds like Nyjer, they may fall through the mesh, so this feeder is best suited for larger seeds or chunky blends.
Because the feeder is made of durable poly-lumber and stainless steel, you can easily clean it by brushing off debris and wiping it down with a mild soap and water solution. The open design makes it simple to reach all corners to ensure a hygienic feeding environment.
Yes, the poly-lumber is specifically engineered to resist cracking, splitting, and fading, even when exposed to direct sunlight or freezing temperatures. The stainless steel hardware also ensures the feeder remains rust-resistant throughout the seasons.
As an open-platform hanging feeder, it is not squirrel-proof. If squirrels are an issue in your yard, consider hanging the feeder on a baffle-protected pole or in a location that is difficult for squirrels to access.
