• Built Michigan-Rugged: The UV-stabilized polycarbonate tube won't yellow in the summer sun or become brittle during a -10°F February wind chill. The rust-resistant copper-finished metal hardware is built to handle our humid lake-effect air without corroding.
• The "Stay-Dry" Reservoir: Holds approximately 1 lb of Nyjer (thistle) seed. The snug-fitting metal lid keeps out Michigan’s sudden rain showers and heavy snow, ensuring your expensive seed stays fresh and flowable.
• Easy Maintenance: The lid slides up the heavy-duty hanging wire for effortless refilling. The clear tube allows you to monitor seed levels from your kitchen window, so you know exactly when it’s time for a top-off.

🧤 Backyard Birds: Michigan Pro-Tips 🧤

• The "Goldfinch Glow": Michigan’s American Goldfinches are highly visual. The shimmer of the brushed copper acts as a natural attractant, catching the sunlight and signaling to passing flocks that your yard is a premium feeding station.
• Beat the Humidity Clump: Our Great Lakes humidity can make tiny thistle seeds "stick" together. Pro-Tip: Every time you walk past, give the feeder a firm "Michigan tap" on the side. This keeps the seed loose and ensures it flows smoothly to the bottom ports.
• Winter Redpoll Rareness: Keep your eyes peeled in January and February! During "irruption" years, Common Redpolls migrate down from Canada into Michigan. They love these 6-port metal feeders because they prefer feeding in small, social groups.
• Hygiene is Key: To protect our local finches from eye infections (Mycoplasmal conjunctivitis), which can spread during our damp Michigan springs, we recommend a quick scrub with a 9:1 water-to-bleach solution every two weeks.

A Compact Powerhouse for Michigan’s Acrobatic Sunflower Lovers!

Inspired by the copper-rich history of our own Upper Peninsula, the Woodlink 24512 COPSUNMINI is the perfect "cling-style" feeder for birders who want to see their backyard friends up close. This rugged, all-steel station is designed specifically for Black Oil Sunflower seeds, the #1 choice for Michigan’s year-round residents like the Northern Cardinal and Black-capped Chickadee.

• Acrobatic Cling Feeding: The 1/4" steel mesh is perfectly spaced to hold sunflower seeds while allowing birds to cling anywhere on the surface. This invites acrobatic specialists like Goldfinches, Nuthatches, and Titmice to dine from any angle, giving you a front-row seat to their playful antics.
• Built for the Great Lakes: Constructed with a rust-resistant aluminum brushed copper finish on the cap and base, this feeder is built to handle everything from Michigan's humid summer mornings to our salt-heavy winter air.
• The "Stay-Dry" Design: Featuring open drainage holes around the bottom tray, this feeder ensures that even after a sudden Mackinac rain shower, your seed remains dry and fresh.
• Easy Refills: The metal roof slides easily up the heavy-duty hanging cable for quick filling and cleaning. Its compact 0.5 lb capacity makes it an ideal starter feeder or a secondary station for smaller patios and balconies. 

🧤 Backyard Birds: Michigan Pro-Tips 🧤

• The "Sunflower Secret": Michigan birds are obsessed with Black Oil Sunflower seeds. They have thinner shells and higher oil content than striped varieties, providing the essential energy boost our local Cardinals and Chickadees need to survive a 10°F night.
• Goldfinch "Petal" Behavior: In late summer, you might see Michigan Goldfinches tearing petals off your garden sunflowers before they even go to seed. Pro-Tip: Hang this feeder nearby to give them a "ready-to-eat" alternative while your garden flowers finish maturing!
• Winter De-Icing: During a classic Michigan ice storm, the mesh can glaze over. Because this model is heavy-duty steel, you can safely give it a firm tap with a wooden spoon to break the ice and free up the seeds for your hungry winter residents.
• Chickadee "Grab & Go": Watch your local Black-capped Chickadees—they will often grab a single seed from the mesh and fly to a nearby maple or oak to shell it in the safety of the branches.

Product Overview

Hot Pepper Suet Nuggets™ (446107) are a powerful tool for any birder dealing with persistent squirrels. Because birds lack the receptors to taste the "heat" of red peppers, they can enjoy these high-fat treats while squirrels, raccoons, and other mammals find them highly unpalatable.

These versatile nuggets can be fed alone on a platform feeder or in a dedicated nugget/peanut feeder. For a strategic advantage, they are ideal when mixed with 5–10 lbs of wild bird seed in a traditional feeder, helping to "spice protect" your entire seed supply.

Why You’ll Love It

• Squirrel Deterrent: Naturally discourages mammals without the use of harmful chemicals.

• Versatile Feeding: Can be used solo or as a "booster" mixed into your favorite loose seed blends.

• No-Waste & No-Melt: A clean, mess-free alternative to traditional suet that holds its shape through hot, humid summer days.

• Resealable Bag: Keeps the nuggets fresh and easy to store between feedings.

Pro Tips for the Backyard Birder

• Bluebird Favorite: Eastern Bluebirds are frequently drawn to the soft texture and high fat content of these nuggets, especially during early spring when natural insect supplies are low.

• Safe Handling: Because these nuggets contain real red pepper, always wash your hands thoroughly after filling your feeders to avoid accidental eye or nose irritation.

• The "Mixed Grill" Strategy: Stirring these into your standard sunflower or safflower seed is a cost-effective way to teach local squirrels that your station is no longer on their menu.

The C&S Products Hot Pepper Delight No-Melt Suet Dough (100214325 / 4412553) is a highly effective, specialized wild bird treat engineered to handle both intense seasonal heat and aggressive backyard pests. Formulated with clean-rendered beef suet, roasted peanuts, corn, and oats, this nutrient-dense cake is mixed into a soft dough before being pressed cleanly into its final brick form.

The defining attribute of this suet dough is its potent infusion of hot red pepper chili flakes and oils. Because mammals possess acute capsaicin receptors while birds are entirely immune to heat spices, nuisance squirrels, raccoons, and opossums will quickly abandon the feeder after a single taste, leaving the food entirely intact for local songbirds, cardinals, and woodpeckers.

Why It’s a Top Tier Inventory Choice

• True No-Melt Matrix: Processed under unique conditions to withstand high outdoor heat thresholds up to 100°F without dripping, turning gooey, or making a mess underneath the feeding cage.

• Mammal Defense Mechanism: The built-in red pepper profile acts as an organic, non-toxic shield to prevent squirrels from chewing up or dominating expensive backyard setups.

• High Attraction Power: Loaded with premium rendered fats and coarse grain splits to give high-metabolism clinging birds the immediate energy resources they require year-round.
