What can I put under a bird feeder to catch the seeds?




I live in an apartment complex and they have river rocks as landscaping. The bird seeds pile up and begin to sprout. Can I put something under feeder itself or on the ground?

Sure. You can buy a small tarp in a tan or green or silver tone at Harbor Freight and cut it or fold it. You can stake it down at the grommets. It can be washed off somewhere else.
