Simple Mixing Instructions:
One can of Easy Mix Hummingbird Nectar yields 4.5 quarts of nectar. To prepare, simply use the measuring scoop provided, adhere to the mixing instructions, and combine with water in a ratio designed for ideal dilution. No boiling, just stir the mixture into water until it is fully dissolved. If you have any nectar left over after filling your feeders, it can be refrigerated for future use.
Maintaining Freshness and Cleanliness:
To ensure that your feeders remain attractive to hummingbirds, it’s crucial to refresh and refill the nectar every few days, especially in warm weather. Each time you refill, clean the feeder thoroughly with hot water and a soft brush, rinsing all parts and ports. Allow the feeder to cool before adding the new nectar, as spoiled nectar can deter these delightful birds from visiting.
Tips for Attracting Hummingbirds:
To enhance your chances of attracting hummingbirds, be aware of when they typically arrive in your area, and ensure you have multiple feeders set up beforehand. Hummingbirds are particularly attracted to the color red—placing red feeders, native flowers, or even red ribbons in your yard can help draw them in.
Since these birds can be territorial, it is advisable to position feeders a reasonable distance apart and to provide swings nearby for them to monitor their feeding areas. Opt for locations close to trees or shrubs to provide shelter from potential predators.
To keep your nectar feeders clean and free of ants, consider using moats. Additionally, adding a water mister or dripper nearby can attract hummingbirds drawn to the sound of moving water, which they will also use for bathing.
