Keeping a Clean Bird Bath

I love bird watching, and perhaps the most fun is watching birds in my birdbaths. However, as you know, sometimes they can get a little "funky" and dirty. Here are some great tips to keep your bird baths clean all season long:

--Use a scrub brush to clean away any debris. Or, if you have a power washer, this is a great time to use it!

--Some folks use bleach when the grime is too difficult to remove. If you do use bleach, rinse well several times and let birdbath dry out in the sun for the day.

--A cup of vinegar is also useful in cleaning the birdbath...let stand for about 20 minutes, or longer depending on the amount of buildup/grime, and then thoroughly rinse.

--Make sure to rinse and refill your bird bath daily if possible, or every other day, to keep them clean.

--Probably the best tip....throw a couple copper pennies in the bird bath. This works so well! Or, a piece of copper pipe works great too. You will not believe how this keeps the buildup away.

Now, sit back and enjoy the activities in and surrounding your clean birdbath!!
