Proper storage can keep birdseed fresh and nutritious for longer, ensuring that backyard birds have the very best to eat. Whether you need to store birdseed from a great sale, to stock up for winter or just find it convenient to have plenty of seed on hand, it must be stored well to make the most of every seed so none is lost or wasted.
Why Proper Storage Matters
Birdseed must be stored carefully or it can be subject to a wide variety of problems. Mice, rats, raccoons or other animals can gorge themselves on seed that is easily accessible, while insects and other pests may infest the seed and make it unfit for birds to eat. If seed gets damp, it will clump, fester and mold, which can make birds sick. Old seed loses nutritional value and is not as healthy for birds, and if seed is in very poor condition, birds may not eat it at all and will simply move on to other food sources, abandoning a backyard feeding station. By properly storing seed, however, these problems can be avoided and birds will always have safe, nutritious treats to enjoy.
Properly Storing Seed
Storing birdseed to keep it fresh, safe and nutritious isn't hard, and only takes three simple steps…
Once seed is properly stored, it is important to inspect it regularly to be sure the containers are doing their job. Sift through seed to check for signs of moisture, insects or mold, and check around the container as well for evidence of raiding pests. Rotate seed so the oldest supply is used first, and thoroughly wash and disinfect the containers at least once or twice a year to keep them safe for storing seed.
Storing seed well is more than just keeping it in a convenient location – it also keeps seed fresh and nutritious for months, allowing birders to easily stock up and never worry about their backyard birds missing a meal.
