Feeder-Cleaning
Basics

1. Empty and take apart your bird feeder.
2. Scrub well (inside and out) with a 10% bleach 90% water mix.
3. Allow all parts to dry.
4. Assemble, fill, and replace clean feeder.

It's so easy! Regular cleanings will keep your birds healthy, and will prolong the life of your feeders.
