RSPB Premium peanuts have a higher oil content and are a nutritious high protein food loved by garden birds
Safety is our top priority, and as such we reject any peanuts containing detectable aflatoxin. Aflatoxin, sometimes found in poorer quality peanuts, can build up in birds' bodies, eventually leading to death
Peanuts
Preparation and Usage:
Best through a mesh hanging feeder
Where to Site:
Place in situ at the start of the day to ensure that birds can replace the energy they have lost overnight.
How to Use:
Place hanging feeders at least 2m away from prey hiding spots
Feeding Tips:
When food resources scarcer, it is essential to feed garden birds all year round.
Hygiene:
- Always ensure garden birds have plenty of fresh clean water for drinking and bathing
- Clean feeding and drinking areas regularly with a mild disinfectant
- Keep food fresh and dry, removing any wet food to prevent the spread of bacteria and diseases
