We added a little spice to the bird food that is enjoyed by more than 140 different bird species. Our exclusive Jim’s Birdacious® Hot Pepper Bark Butter® Bits are great for attracting birds, including many that do not normally visit feeders, and deterring squirrels and other critters.
To discover which birds are in your backyard, offer Bark Butter Bits in a tray, seed tube or hopper feeder. Also, try mixing them in with your existing foods to attract more birds.
We know you enjoy feeding your backyard birds, but sometimes those pesky squirrels and other critters can put a damper on things. That's why we offer a variety of hot pepper bird foods, including Fiery Feast™ and SunFire™ Chips, available exclusively at Wild Birds Unlimited. Fiery Feast™ is a mix of hot pepper and shell-less seeds, and SunFire™ Chips are shell-less sunflower seeds and a hint of hot pepper, so both are also no-mess ways to feed the birds.
Pound for pound, our no-mess blends are the best value because you don't pay for uneaten seed waste. And with hot pepper included, you'll see critters shy away while feeding the birds you love to attract!
Are critters stealing suet from your feeders? We have the solution. We've added some heat to some of our bird foods, including our exclusive seed cylinders and no-melt suet cylinders and stackables. While birds such as chickadees, titmice and nuthatches readily eat foods containing hot pepper, pesky critters will shy away from them.
For best results, use a cylinder feeder with a roof to prevent the hot pepper from being washed off or diluted by the weather.
