What is aflatoxin?

Aflatoxin is a naturally occurring toxin produced by certain fungi that can contaminate food crops. Exposure to aflatoxin can cause serious health problems in humans and animals. That's why at Uren, we take great care to ensure that our bird feed peanuts are tested for aflatoxin and are completely safe for consumption.

What type of peanut is best for wild birds?

For larger birds, whole in-shell peanuts are the best option. Smaller birds will benefit from chopped or crushed peanuts, which are easier for them to eat. Make sure that you're using a dedicated feeder to avoid attracting rodents.

Some birders prefer to offer a mixture of both types so that all birds can enjoy the benefits of peanuts. Whichever type you choose, make sure that the peanuts are fresh and free from any mould or mildew.

The best way to store bird feed peanuts

You'll need to be careful about how you store your bird feed peanuts to ensure that they stay fresh. Peanuts are best kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. An airtight container is ideal.

Storage tips:

  1. Once opened, transfer your peanuts to an airtight container

Are peanuts harmful to birds?

No, peanuts are not harmful to birds. In fact, they are an excellent source of nutrition for birds. However, it is important to ensure that the peanuts you offer are fresh and free from mould or mildew. Mouldy or mildewed peanuts can make birds sick.

What is the best way to feed peanuts to birds?

The best way to feed peanuts to birds is to offer them in a bird feeder. Bird feeders come in a variety of shapes and sizes, so you can choose one that's right for the type of birds you want to attract. If you're not sure which bird feeder to choose, ask your local birding store for advice.

When filling your bird feeder, make sure that the peanuts are fresh and free from mould or mildew. If you're using chopped or crushed peanuts, be sure to check the bird feeder regularly to ensure that the peanuts haven't gone mouldy.
