You can’t afford to be lazy when it comes to cleaning your bird bath. Apart from needing to change the water every day to prevent disease, stagnant water attracts mosquitoes and encourages algae growth.
If you don’t properly maintain your bird bath, you are creating an environment that’s both unsafe for birds and humans. And I know from experience that a clean bird bath brings in more feathered friends, who you can watch having a quick drink or making a splash.
