20 lb. Economy Wild Bird Food Seed

A:  Store can charge more under the guise of in creased delivery costs.

A:  The "other ingredients" in bird food are a food supply for other insects. Make sure the top of the bag is folded and then folded again. Use a large metal binder clip to secure the fold and keep the bag in a cool place out of the sun. Hope this helps! Good Luck.

A:  Sounds like you have pantry moths. I've gotten them from bags of bird seed. They are easy to catch though--buy some pheromone traps. They fly right in and get stuck on the sticky surface.

A:  I have found that if you freeze the bird food it helps.

A:  It's quite normal for birds to go through a feeder in a day, especially in Spring. I have 4 seed feeders up every morning and by dinner time, they are empty. My hummingbird feeders are about half empty each day. In the summer I fill the hummers' feeders every day and keep an eye on them and refill if they empty before dinner time. Different breeds of birds like different seed. Cardinals love black oiled sunflower seeds, corn, safflower. Others like Nyjer seed, peanuts. I add more sunflower seeds to the Economy bag to attract more birds. Be sure to have some water for them too. I find this site quite helpful with many bird questions. https://www.thespruce.com/how-to-choose-the-best-birdseed-386541

A:  Yes, if you have a small size feeder. I had a smaller one and filled it twice a day between the birds and squirrels. Every bird likes different things out of the seeds. If you are looking to make all types of birds happy then I would continue buying this type of feed.

A:  The birds toss out and pick at the seeds to find the seeds that they prefer. Much the same as what people do when they sift through a bowl of Jelly Belly jelly beans. Digging for their favorites. The mixture of seeds in the Wagner's 20 lb bag of seeds is designed to include favorites for a variety of birds. Going through a feeder in a day can be quite normal. Especially if you have a lot of birds in your area and limited food sources other than your feeder. Also it can depend on time of year. Natural food sources are limited during the winter and early spring.

A:  No. The birds are picking only the seeds they like to eat. Check the mixture of ingredients in the bag. You might want to change to a different brand. I tried the same bird food and only the crows came to the area where birds had pushed out the food. I changed to a different brand, spent a few dollars more and the birds came back. Hope this will help! Good luck.

A:  I fill mine about every two days, they seem to be digging out the sunflower seeds!! and then the mourning doves and cardinals and bluejays eat the seeds on the ground, and the chipmunks!!! I think hanging the suet next to the seed helps

A:  I have never looked. Product has always seemed fine and the birds have never turned their beaks up at it ;>) In other words, they eat it too fast to worry about an expiration date. Hope that helped!

A:  Yes

A:  Yes, the expiration date is on the bag and well into the future

A:  If it is expired bring it back to home depot for another bag.

A:  You shouldn't worry about "expiration dates" on bird seed. The seeds aren't spoiled or moldy. Dried grains and seeds aren't going to harm any birds by being over the sell-by date.

A:  You should asked at the store. But I bought wild bird for years never looked at the expiration date really never thought it had one, never had a proplem birds always ate it.

A:  If there is no "sell by" or expiration date, you can call the manufacturer directly on the bag and give the numbers you saw on the bag to get the "shelf life" of the food, or go online to the company website to contact. Hope this helps!

A:  Home depot stoped selling bird food,but birds don't care if expired.

A:  Yes itis clearly marked.
