Songbird Essentials 30 inch Universal Seed Hoop for Bird Feeders

Pro: well designed and does the job. Perfect for catching seeds flipped out by the birds. Keeps ground clean and squirrel free.Con: Cords do not stay in place when larger birds feed from the discarded seeds. I substituted carabiner bungee cords to solve this problem.Customer support 0 ! I reached out using the listed number. Was told someone would get back to me. Still waiting!!!

The product came out very nicely packed and is easy to install.I wish I knew about this product when I bought my first bird feeder.We love wildlife and the birds in our backyard but all the seeds that fell from the feeder attracted rodents so we had to remove the feeder.Now that feeder is back thanks for this product as a solution. It prevents so much seed wastage and catches seeds from spilling while birds are working and saves my lawn; prevents rodents.Amazing simple idea. Not only this saves seeds from falling, it offers an extra platform for the birds to feed.I have a small suggestion to raise the sides to about 2 inches high or may be more, so it would catch near 100% seeds.I have the 30 inch wide hoop.

Great for catching the seeds!!!Good value and I think well made. I like that it's adjustable for height. It's kinda big and takes up room so that's something to consider when hanging out up. Easy to hang up.I can use an old toothbrush to brush and clean off any bird poop.I just put it up a day ago.I've had a few birds 🐦 come and feed and check it out.I think some are still leery of it and will take time.

This works great to keep the seeds from falling on the ground plus, I also use it as additional area for the larger birds like quail to eat from

I attached this to a regular seed hopper. My sparrows, titmouse Ann other birds won't go near it. My feed has been out for years and and this net has been up for one week. Not one bird at the feeder. It tends to sway a lot in the breeze so I think that may be scaring the birds. I can't imagine that it wouldn't catch the seeds, but my birds won't go near it. I've tried the net near the feeder and dangling away from the feeder. Still no birds. After taking it off, the birds were back within an hour. If it's weighted better, it might now so violently swing and they might stay.As for the quality, the edges had difficulty staying up around it. The clips, netting and rim seemed like they'd hold up in New England weather. The last picture is of a smaller version. It was miserable to clean this out.

I did not read well enough - thought I was getting a great deal with a new bird feeder AND seed catcher so I stopped growing weird plants in my front lawn - this is just a mesh VERY large seed catcher. I'll be returning.

This is great. I used to have a huge mess of seed shells under my bird feeders. This makes clean up super easy, and it's so adjustable and easy to install.

This is a replacement for an older one that has saved me loads of money on bird seed, catching it before it can fall on the ground. The birds actually light on the seed catcher and eat what seed has fallen on it, so it's another bird feeder really. I've seen as many as 10 Mourning Doves on it at the same time eating fallen seed, and this is every day. Of course other birds use it as a feeder too.Over the winter with all the wet weather, by Spring it has some mold on it, so I take it down, lay it on the grass, spray with mold and mildew cleaner, use a soft brush and brush both sides, rinse really well and it looks brand new. A few times I've just sprayed it, left a few minutes, rinsed really well with it still hanging under the bird feeder. I have one under a platform feeder and one under a sunflower chip feeder.This is definitely a must have for me. I also don't have squirrels under my bird feeders! That makes it even better.
