Birds and rodents both love to eat seeds;so where there's one, there's likely to be the other. Squirrels,mice, and rats can invade feeders; and they'reparticularly fond of foraging on the ground for spilled seedand hulls.
Likewise, people ask, what can pet mice eat list?
Some examples of fruit and vegetables include: apples,pears, banana, melons, stone fruits, citrus fruits, broccoli,cabbage, brussel sprouts, endive, carrots, Bok Choy/other Asiangreens, celery, parsley, berries, tomato, fresh corn, beans,peas.
Keeping this in consideration, how do you feed birds without attracting mice?
Add cayenne pepper or chili pepper flakes to seed andsuet. The birds won't mind, but mice dislike hot,strong tastes and will quickly move on to another foodsource. Take steps to attract owls and other raptors to yourproperty for natural rodent control.
Other Major Food Hazards These foods include walnuts, raw beans, rhubarbs,onions, raisins and grapes. Never feed a mouse any ofthese foods, period. Wheat, lettuce and corn are all alsoinappropriate for mice, as they can bring on tummy distressand loose stools in the poor little guys.
