Feeding & Storage Tips
- Store in a sealed container in a cool, dry place to keep it fresh and pest-free.
- In hot, humid weather, put out only what your birds finish in a day or two; shelled hearts and peanuts spoil faster than seed in the shell.
- Keep it dry in the feeder. A weather dome or a feeder with drainage helps.
- A tray under the feeder catches the few safflower hulls.
FAQ
Will squirrels eat it?
Yes. The sunflower and peanuts appeal to squirrels, so use a squirrel-resistant feeder such as a Squirrel Buster or add a baffle.
Is it completely shell-free?
Nearly. The sunflower hearts and peanut pieces are shelled; safflower keeps its thin hull, so a few hulls may drop.
Which feeder should I use?
Any tube, hopper or platform feeder. Skip fine-mesh finch feeders; the peanut pieces are too big for them.
How long does it stay fresh?
Kept sealed, cool and dry, it stays fresh for weeks. In summer heat, offer smaller amounts more often.
Tip: Want it fully shell-free? Try Kracker Jax. Trying to discourage squirrels? Go all-safflower with Golden Safflower.
