Bird feeders and seed.

Something that people who bought a new house will like is a bird feeder and birdseed. I have a couple of Squirrelbuster brand feeders because they really do work, and they’re the only ones that have worked without getting ripped apart by our local neighborhood raccoons.

Birdseed is also highly important. I find that the shell-less variety lasts longer because the shells take up so much space. The birds love it, too. It’s sometimes a little more expensive than the kind that has shells on, but the cost evens out since it does take the birds two days to clear out a feeder instead of one day. I use shelled seed too, but it tends to go a little faster.

See Squirrelbuster feeders on Amazon (#ad),Opens in a new tab. and the kind of birdseed that I use is there, too.Opens in a new tab.
