Not only woodpeckers may enjoy woodpecker feeders but other birds as well. If you are interested to have one, there are a couple of things that you need to know about bird feeding and duncraft bird feeders. Thus, you can easily setup your bird’s feeder in no time at all. To make it more interesting, consider this as some kind of a carpentry project. If you do not like sawing and cutting wood, better make use of mesh wires. All you need is to loop it around to create a space to fill in the woodpecker’s food. You have to make sure that the woodpecker can fairly fit in and get the food that is why you need to cut round holes on both opposite sides. To setup a bird house feeder, particularly woodpecker feeders, you need to take some time in order to find out which tree branch will give a full view for the feeder. For woodpeckers to have a wider space, you may choose a big branch in this matter. Just make sure too that the location for this would not attract too many birds to avoid them to be crowded. Some of the essentials that you will need for to setup your woodpecker feeders are power drill, twines (shoelaces will also do the trick), and your bird house feeder. To put a hole onto the tree branch, use the power drill to do this. Make sure the hole is completely open on the other side to let the twines pass and circle through it. After inserting the ropes, elevate the bird feeder into your preferred height. If the location of the woodpecker feeders is too high, it may be necessary to use a ladder every time you would need to clean and refill it.

Also, security of the twines that you used to hand the woodpecker feeders should be tight enough. To add support, better tie it in two separate places. To test if these supports are strong enough, tug them lightly. This ends the process of building up your woodpecker feeders. You need to look at your feeder from afar to see if it perfectly looks fine. If you see anything that needs to be changed on the entire feeder, then you may do so. You will find that in no time at all, woodpeckers will come by your feeders. If you see woodpeckers happily eating the nuts and seeds in your feeders, do not go near them for they may fly away. To capture moments like these, you have to use your camera with the zoom option in it. Woodpecker feeders are easy to manage. You just need a small brush to clean off the dirt in the feeder. Remember, a clean feeder is an assurance that the woodpeckers will keep on coming back for more of your treats.
