SEED BUSTER: a Seed Catcher and a Tray Feeder

HOW IT WORKS

1. Use it as a Seed Catcher to catch dropped seed and to eliminate the ground mess. Birds are messy eaters. They know exactly which seed they want sweeping out anything else. The discarded seeds end up on the ground creating mess and attracting unwanted visitors. The Seed Catcher Tray catches dropped seed and eliminates the ground mess.

2. Use it as a Tray Feeder to attract ground-feeding birds. Some birds only feed on the ground and do not feel comfortable eating on tube feeders. Use the Seed Catcher Tray on its own as a tray feeder to attract ground-feeding birds or install it under a tube feeder to create a Cardinal Court where perching, clinging and ground-feeding birds dine together.

SEED CATCHER IN USE


Use it as an independent platform feeder and/or seed catcher.	Use it on your patio or your deck.	Use it with a hopper feeder.	Use it with a tube feeder.

EASY TO INSTALL

OTHER FEATURES

DRAINAGE

The holes at the bottom and the inclination of the tray help with water drainage.

FITS 1-INCH STRAIGHT POLE

Install on an 1-inch (outside diameter) birding pole.

EASY TO GRIP

The ridges at the bottom of the tray are specially designed to allow fingers to easily grip the tray and lift it off the collars.

EASY TO CLEAN

This product is designed to be easily dismantled for cleaning. Frequency of cleaning varies according to climate. In general, in hot and humid climates, more frequent cleaning is required than in colder climates. Heavy bird traffic can also increase the frequency of cleaning.

Warning: Bird droppings contain contaminants. Avoid skin contact.

This is a quality plastic tray that is robust, easy to install, and clean.

Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2020

Verified Purchase

I like the quality of the construction. The split tray makes it very easy to detach from the pole and dump excess empty seed shells into a plastic bag for the trash. When the upper clamp on the pole is loosened and slid up, the two half trays still stay securely in place so no balancing is necessary. With a slight upward movement of one tray half, it is detached completely from the mount. The tray is large enough to catch about 90% of the seed that birds knock out of the bird feeder that is located above the tray. Now we are not feeding the whole neighborhood of squirrels, mice, turkeys and chipmunks and destroying our lawn below the bird feeder. Enough seed gets past this tray to provide some food for a few local chipmunks. My original pole was 1 3/8 inches in diameter so I had to replace the pole with a one inch diameter pole because I could not think of a way to modify this well-designed tray without destroying most of its benefits. My only wish is that they made a few collars for this tray that would fit several pole sizes, because larger poles are more stable. The one-inch pole that comes in two sections is not that stable, so I had to put a fence stake next to it to secure it. I would recommend this tray without reservations.

Watch out for the pole width

Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2024

Verified Purchase

Really nice well-built product, but the width of the support pole wasn’t clear. A 1” diameter 10’ steel conduit won’t work, and you’ll waste $25 finding this out if you cut the conduit before you check to see that the tray clamp I/D is too small. A 3/4” threaded steel pipe works if you Dremmel sand the interior of the plastic clamps a little bit. This pipe is about $35 at the Home Depot, you’ll use a pipe cutter to cut the pipe down to about 6-7’, and hammer it down about 3’. Keep the threaded side up so you can get the attachment prong on.

The seed catcher installation was quick and simple. Under the feeders was always such a mess, attracting pests and vermin. As a reviewer mentioned, there is a slight gap between the halves, but I consider that a minor flaw. Having had it up for 3 days, I can say it’s working well. I just wish the diameter was a little larger.

The makes keeping my lawn, clean, much easier. I saw other reviews that complained about the drainage, but I did not have that problem at all even after multiple heavy rains all the holes from the different bird seeds are on the tray and easy to takeoff and pour into the trash. It's also another place for birds to pick up the seeds that they like. a woodpecker who regularly visits our feeder is a sloppy eater, but the CD tosses to the side are eaten by other birds, including cardinals, morning, doves, and more

Solid and well built, but could use some changes.

Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2022

Verified Purchase

Overall this is a good product. Reading reviews on other products, this seems to be the one to get as it is more durable than pretty much any other option. Where it could use some change is on losing seeds. First the drain holes are larger than I'd prefer. Perhaps more holes but smaller would be best. Also the two halves of the catcher don't line up very well. There is an 1/8" gap between the two halves running down the center.

Perhaps if one had a lip that went over the other side, it would be an easy fix. Even better, they could design it so that the left side of each had a lip that covered the other side. That way both parts would be identical, and they'd have no extra inventory for an upper and lower half.

To close the gap on mine I used two small paper clamps to hold them together. They do fine, but I wish they weren't needed. I expect they'll rust over time. Here is an example of what I used:

https://www.amazon.com/Hongri-Binder-Clips-Paper-Clamps/dp/B092LV2J1M/ref=sr_1_5?crid=374NI65JLN39R&keywords=paper+clamps+small&qid=1671458255&sprefix=paper+clamps+small%2Caps%2C127&sr=8-5

Also I've read in other reviews that some people were disappointed that they had problems with this because they didn't have a 1" pole. I was able to use this with a 5/8" pole I got on Amazon. If you're interested, give this a try:

First you need some 3/4" pex pipe and some duct tape. I had some scrap pipe so I was lucky. You need just 5" of pipe to make this work. If you don't have any, maybe a neighbor does.

1) Cut a 2" piece of pex and a 3" piece. That is all you'll need.

2) Then decide where you want the bottom of the tray to be on your pipe.

3) Put one "single" wrap of duct tape on the pipe. Now if you slide the 2" piece of pex onto where that tape is you'll have a nice snug fit. If you want it more snug, add just one more single wrap. I used two and its really tight. In fact I had to use pliers to get the pipe over the tape.

4) Now you can attach the lower bracket/knob of the tray onto the pex pipe. Screw it down, to get it snug.

5) Place the remaining 3" piece of pex onto the pipe above the piece you just put on. You don't need the tape on the upper pipe as the lower piece will hold everything. This upper piece of pex is just there as a spacer so the upper bracket/knob has something it can hold on to.

6) Put the tray parts into the lower bracket. Put the upper knob/bracket on and tighten it up.

7) You're done.

It may be that the 1"pipe could be more sturdy, but if all you have is a 5/8 base this will work just fine. It does for me.

Hope this helps.

Great at keeping the ground under the feeder cleaner

Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2023

Verified Purchase

After being frustrated by the mess (and decline in grass) under the Squirrel Buster Plus feeder, I added this to contain some of the seed slung by unappreciative birds. It definitely cuts down on the seed making its way to the ground, and both a number of birds and the squirrels help themselves to the seed in the tray.

Important word of caution: As stated in the product details, this will only fit a 1" pole Attempts to make it work with a 1 1/4" pole were not successful -- these components are substantial, and do not "give".

Brome's customer service is top-notch, too!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 3, 2024

For reasons of sheer size I had to return this item along with that the pole it was hoped for would have had to have been dismantled to attach the product. Shrubs and trees are adjacent to the feeding pole so this just simply wouldn't have fit even if it was a half moon only, it is enormous and I feel far larger than it need be for the average garden!

Excellent seed tray for keeping the ground around a feeder clean.

Reviewed in Canada on February 2, 2020

Verified Purchase

We have a cylinder feeder on a poll. We learned that birds are sloppy eaters and a lot of seed was falling to the ground that against snow made the setup look very messy. This tray has been perfect at catching most seeds from the feeder. It’s also quite sturdy so birds are able to land on it and feed from it. The mounting is universal as long as the pole is no bigger that 1 inch in diameter. While appearing pricey it is well constructed so it should last for many years. The only complainer will be the squirrels who will find far less food at the base of the feeder.
