Do Just One Thing

Danny Seo on

Help keep backyard birds healthy by cleaning feeders every two weeks, or weekly if the weather has been rainy. If you spot mold, damp seed or sick birds, clean the feeder immediately. For hummingbird and jelly feeders, replace nectar every three to five days, or every one to two days in hot weather, and wash feeders weekly with hot water. You can reduce cleanings as temperatures drop, but be sure to keep feeders full, since local birds will use them to build critical fat reserves to prepare for winter.
