Secure Bird and Wildlife Feeders

Use shelled seed and avoid red milo, as birds will typically toss this type of seed to the ground where it can accumulate and attract wildlife.

Clean up spillage which can attract rodents that, in turn, bring larger predators into closer proximity to pets and people.

Suspend feeders at least 10 feet from the ground and 4 feet away from any attachment points, bring feeders inside at night, or consider a commercially-manufactured bear-resistant feeding station.
