Troubleshooting

Ensure the bird bath is placed on a perfectly level and firm surface. If the ground is uneven, consider levelling it or using a sturdy base.
Water is consistently dirty or developing algae.
Increase the frequency of water changes and cleaning. Consider placing the bird bath in a location with partial shade to reduce algae growth, or use a bird-safe algaecide sparingly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Choose a suitable level location in your garden. Ensure the ground is firm and stable to support the bird bath's weight.
- Carefully place the base of the bird bath on the chosen spot. Due to its weight, assistance may be required.
- Fill the basin with clean, fresh water. Avoid overfilling; the water should not reach the very top edge.
Compatibility:
- This bird bath is designed for outdoor use in gardens, patios, lawns, and flowerbeds.
- It is compatible with all common garden environments and can be placed near other garden ornaments or plants.
Care:
- Regular Cleaning: To ensure the water remains healthy for birds, clean the basin regularly (ideally weekly) by emptying old water, scrubbing with a soft brush, and rinsing thoroughly.
- Algae Prevention: If algae growth becomes an issue, use a mild, bird-safe cleaning solution or a diluted vinegar solution, ensuring it is completely rinsed away.
- Winter Care: While suitable for year-round use, in areas with very harsh frosts, it's advisable to empty the bird bath to prevent water from freezing and potentially damaging the stone. The stone itself is frost-resistant.
