Good range and value

Our first order was placed because the product range was good and represented excellent value. Everything was well packed. There will be more orders.

Reply from Garden Wildlife Direct

Thank you for your review, I'm sorry to hear this. We offer a huge range of bird seed - some of our value end mixes do include a higher percentage of wheat and barley. Certain birds can be fussy and some birds such as ground feeders do prefer wheat heavy mixes. We're always available to give advice on our bird seed via email and phone, and we're happy to recommend seed mixes depending on what birds you have in your garden and want to attract. Kind Regards, Garden Wildlife Direct

Garden Wildlife Direct

I have been using Garden Wildlife Direct for some time now. Their products have always been of good quality and their premium fatballs are the only ones my birds will eat, (who knew birds could be so picky)! The service was always rather slow with my orders taking about 2 weeks to arrive, but my last 3 orders came in less than a week, super. Keep up the good work.

The Garden Wildlife Direct is a great…

The Garden Wildlife Direct is a great company , excellent products the birds love them . I have been using them for some time now and wouldn’t go anywhere else . The only disappointment was my last delivery DPD were dreadful we were home but they didn’t bother to ring our buszzer and they left our parcel out side a communal door and in front of the door which meant it couldn’t be opened as the weight of the parcel was very heavy . That is my only criticism and this is not the fault of the company I ordered from just the delivery company . I have made them aware of the problem

Great experience as always

Always well packaged and arrives quickly. Good quality bird food. I have ordered from GED about once a month for a couple of years now and have never had any issues with the bird food or delivery.

Very competitive priced sunflower seeds

The sunflower seeds are well packaged in sacks, but then put it a cardboard box which was not strong enough and in my opinion was totally unnecessary, just put a despatch label on the sacks. The seeds themselves are good and competitively priced. Would l buy from Garden Wildlife Direct? YES

Excellent company and prices.

I order about twice a month and have done for years. Orders processed quickly and great discounts on a regular basis. I cannot rate them highly enough.
Also a shout out for their chosen carrier.

Great company!

If you want good quality bird food, a really good choice of seeds, nuts, suets, feeders etc, and, most importantly, competitive prices, you should use this company.
I've been a customer for a number of years now, and have always had great service. Delivery is pretty quick and they keep you informed when your order is likely to be delivered.
10/10 for me.

This Company has been my goto supplier for my wild bird food for years now!
Their seed mixes & indeed peanuts, are spot on. With a great selection of mixes that just keep the birds coming back into my garden all year round. I have had some really good spots of some pretty rare birds, since starting buying their products.
And, every single order that I have placed, arrives fresh and very well packed...
I CANNOT RECOMMEND THEM ENOUGH!

quick delivery of good products

I asked for the delivery to be sent quickly because of the hot weather and because I was running out!
It arrived the next day in the morning after I sent the order in yesterday.
Sunflower seeds, premium fatballs and dried worms all get gobbled up quickly.

Reliable and reasonable

I get all my wild bird and animal food from this store now. They are usually a little cheaper than other places and stock stuff that can be difficult to get hold of locally. Happy to recommend them.

Excellent service

I have ordered and received bird food (suet pellets/suet blocks/sunflower hearts/bird seed) plus feeders from here. Everything went perfectly, delivery was quick and prices were good. Could not be better.
