GARDEN GATE: Episode 322 – Offering Water To Birds – (Aug 1, 2025)

It’s been a really hot summer so far! Many days without rain makes it harder for our bird friends to find a cool drink. There are many ways you can help, which will also bring more birds to your yard. Hanging bird baths, hanging waterers, pedestal bird baths, even small dishes of water left out are all great options. The most important thing is to keep the water fresh and your bird baths clean. We have new solar fountains that keep the water circulating. Moving water does attract birds and keeps mosquitoes from laying their eggs in it. We also have copper discs that eliminate waterborne pathogens. Copper is naturally antifungal, antimicrobial, and anti-algal which helps destroy mold and algae.
