Bird Feeder Cleaning

Keeping your bird feeders and bird baths clean is essential to the health of your backyard birds. We have a wide variety of accessories to assist you in cleaning any bird feeder or bath and products to help keep them clean. When cleaning your bird feeders disassemble them as much as possible then, use a 10% bleach solution to clean and disinfect the feeder. Finish by rinsing the feeder thoroughly afterwards.

Also, make sure to check out our complete line of WBU EcoClean® Seed Tube Feeders and WBU EcoClean® Finch Feeders. Available exclusively at Wild Birds Unlimited, our EcoClean® feeders and accessories are the most advanced bird feeding products available on the market. EcoClean® products feature a patented technology that inhibits the surface growth of damaging bacteria, mold and other microbes. This protection won’t wash or wear away, and it uses environmentally friendly technology.

WBU EcoTough® Scrubber Brush: Bird bath water can collect droppings and should be changed often. Regular cleaning will help reduce algae and is good for your birds’ health. Scrub your bath regularly with our EcoTough™ Scrubber Brush with a solution of one part bleach to 10 parts water, rinse well, and replace with fresh water. Extremely durable, this environmentally-friendly brush is made of recycled tires and plastic bottles. We do not recommend cleaning products for baths, nor do we recommend water-conditioning additives (with the exception Birdbath Clear™ which is safe for your birds). Instead, we suggest placing the bath or pond in a shaded area – which helps reduce algae growth.
