Suet Feeding Tips
Placement
Hang the feeder near trees, where woodpeckers and nuthatches naturally forage, and at least 5 feet off the ground.
Choosing Suet
In warm weather, choose no-melt suet cakes so the suet stays firm and fresh.
Cleaning
Remove any old or spoiled suet and wipe the cage clean between refills.
