SuperClean™: Because Dusty Bird Food Can Harm Birds.

Dust is invisible to most people - but not to birds. It can irritate their delicate respiratory system and carry dangerous bacteria, fungal spores and contaminants. That’s why, at Haith’s®, we remove it.

For decades, our mission has been simple: cleaner, safer, healthier bird food.
SuperClean™ isn’t “just bird seed” — it’s our promise to protect wildlife with premium, dust-free nutrition, blended by experts and supported by scientific oversight. When you choose Haith’s, you turn your garden into a thriving, safe haven for nature.

Why Haith's Stands Out


For more than 80 years, Haith’s® has led the way in producing premium, dust-free bird food. In 2014 we said, “Dust is a dirty word at Haith’s.” Today, with even stricter quality control and scientific support, that commitment is stronger than ever.

The Menace of Dust

Dust seems harmless — but for birds, it’s a serious risk.

  • It irritates the respiratory system
  • It can carry harmful bacteria
  • It may transport fungal spores
  • It increases the risk of disease in aviaries

Renowned budgie breeder Fred Wright once called dust “our small but deadly enemy.”

Research supported by our external scientific advisor reinforces this risk.
