Flat bird feeders spread deadly diseases, so experts urge switching to hanging types and regular cleaning.
Garden bird feeders, especially flat tables and trays, are linked to the spread of deadly diseases like finch trichomonosis and Salmonella, prompting experts to advise against their use.
The RSPB stopped selling flat feeders in early 2025 due to evidence that close bird contact and contaminated droppings increase disease transmission, contributing to sharp declines in finch populations.
Birdwatchers are encouraged to switch to hanging feeders with suet or seeds, clean feeders regularly, and avoid damp or overcrowded feeding areas to protect wild bird health.
