I don't know how to remedy that besides suet, so I used peanut butter mixed with cornmeal, to cut down on glop. The cornmeal has enough "tooth" so it still holds the seeds on.<BR/><BR/>Also, you can use a juiced-out orange half for a feeder. Make a hole in the bottom, thread a pipe cleaner through it, then add a bead to keep it on and thread end back up. So your orange now looks like an upside-down umbrella with a handle. Then fill center with suet/seeds mixture and afix to bushes, etc. Voila. The orange color is great because it stands out, attracting birdies. I hid ours in the choke cherries outside my kitchen window so that I might watch birds while washing up.Hazel M.
