Frequently Asked Questions

What birds eat black sunflower seeds?
Black sunflower seeds are popular with greenfinches, goldfinches, blue tits, great tits, nuthatches, house sparrows and great spotted woodpeckers — one of the most widely attractive wild bird foods available.

How do black sunflower seeds differ from sunflower hearts?
Black sunflower seeds still have their outer husk, which birds crack open to reach the kernel. Sunflower hearts are the dehusked kernel — no mess, no waste. Black sunflower seeds are more economical; sunflower hearts are more convenient.

Can I use these in a standard seed feeder?
Use a feeder with ports large enough to accommodate the seeds. A dedicated sunflower seed feeder or large-port tube feeder works best.

How should I store sunflower seeds?
Store in a cool, dry, vermin-proof container. Keep sealed between uses to maintain freshness.
