Erdtmann Wild Bird Food in Tub, 5 Kg

Price paid - £8.79. "Delayed" delivery meant Hermes delivered it today....not via Amazon Prime as previously.Tub arrived damaged - a common occurrence many reviewers state. This was The first tub delivered that I have received in this state. The lid was smashed and the contents had to be carefully tipped into the crushed/flimsy Amazon cardboard box. Luckily I still had the previous tub of Erdtmann' s Sommerstreufutter to decant it all. Amazon were contacted via chat, Megha one of their Customer Service staff kindly gave me a full refund of £8.79 AND a £5 goodwill voucher.The birdseed has plenty of Black Niger Seeds which the regular garden visitors will enjoy.

I bought this one because it comes in a tub (we’ve had some mouse visitors in the garage where we store the bird food), the mice were finding it very easy to nibble through the bags but haven’t been able to break into this tub. The birds love this seed too and it looks like a good quality “clean” seed.

This isn't the most varied of bird seed mixes, however it's reasonably priced and does come in a nice, solid 5kg storage pot that should help me to store other varieties of bird seed, whilst offering a less accessible package for rodents than bagged seeds. The mix isn't non-grow, and does seem to contain quite a lot of moisture, so if the tub is left outdoors or kept in a greenhouse during warm weather, evaporation and condensation of water contained in the seeds may effectively water the seeds and stimulate some to germinate.Wood pigeons, crows, rooks, house and tree sparrows, robins, finches, blackbirds, wrens, and bluetits all seem to be interested in the seed mix - and some of them seem to have started grumbling at us when the usual feeding stations in our front garden are empty!

I mix this seed in layers with my expensive seeds, suet bits and mealworms. It is value for money with lots of variety. The birds are quite messy and I keep on having to use the hoe to clear up all the sprouting seeds on the ground! Aaah well it's nice to see them clustering around the feeding stations.

This is so popular we’re having a job keeping it filled up! Came very quickly and is so bird friendly I wish we’d ordered two! large tubs which keep well and am really pleased with the outcome. Just the usual ordinary birds but they took to it right away without pondering over it! Would definitely recommend.

Good value, arrived next day. Strong tub container. Lots of seeds of various kinds. Stars for flavour? a difficult one, its meant for birds Ha! I obviously do not know what it tastes like!! I had to put something as its a good all round product and didnt deserve a no star!

This is a great mixture of seeds that have gone down so well with our feathered friends! They adore this and it looks so packed with goodness for them. The squirrels have taken a shine to the sunflower seeds God bless them but other than that great value for money and a weight off our minds to be able to afford something like this to help the birds out.

Purchased this item as we needed some seed but also wanted a tub for outside storage (under an eave) that we will then refill from larger sacks.This tub is big enough to keep a large scoop inside and the design of the lid lip will easily keep any rain out making it perfect for our needs.Seed mix seems decent, certainly better than some of the cheaper brands I've bought (older reviews seem to indicate mix issues - perhaps the batches have now been revised, will post a photo if I can figure out how to from mobile!).
