Burkmann Feeds LLC is recalling 14 different varieties of wild bird food mixes, totaling over 230 tons of product, because they contain peanuts that may be contaminated with Salmonella. These bird foods were distributed to 55 retail customers nationwide and contain roasted peanuts sourced from Peanut Corporation of America (PCA), which was linked to a salmonellosis outbreak. Consumers should immediately stop using these products and return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
Salmonella can cause serious illness in both pets and humans who handle the contaminated bird food, especially if they do not wash their hands after contact. While bird food is intended for animals, it poses a cross-contamination risk to people in the household through contact with feeders, surfaces, or the product itself.
Full refund at the place of purchase.
