Frequently Asked Questions
Woodpeckers have a big appetite for suet, in particular high-energy suet consisting of peanuts, seeds, or fruit. They will also enjoy feeders offering sunflower seeds and other larger foods such as cylinders. Refer to "Choosing The Right Seed" & "Beyond Bird Seed" for guidance.
Start with a suet feeder in a quiet location where woodpeckers can easily see and reach it. You can also offer woodpeckers peanuts or sunflower seeds. Give them some time to find your feeder, especially if you don’t have woodpeckers around your yard.
You can easily attract woodpeckers with a suet feeder. Tail-prop suet feeders can be beneficial because they give larger woodpeckers a place to brace their tails while they eat.
