Q: How do you keep ants out of a hummingbird feeder?
This feeder has a built-in ant moat above the feeding ports that blocks ants from crawling down to the syrup, so you don't need extra moats or barriers.
AG156 - 12 oz Hummingbird Feeder
Ideal for medium- to high-traffic zones, this feeder has four feeding ports and holds 12 oz (354ml) of syrup. The wrap-around perch is well positioned for hummingbirds to rest and conserve energy while feeding, and a built-in ant moat keeps six-legged trespassers from helping themselves to a free meal. The lid fits snugly on the base and releases for easy cleaning or refilling.
Made from impact-resistant polycarbonate, the feeder is 7 3/4" in diameter and 9" tall with the brass hook installed. Dishwasher safe.
Optional nectar guard tips (available separately) slide onto the feeding ports to create a barrier that flying insects cannot penetrate.
Made in USA.
The National Audubon Society gives these tips to help stop the spread of bird diseases such as avian flu. Clean feeders and bird baths with a solution of nine parts water to one part bleach every two weeks. Use multiple feeders to make it easier for birds to feed at a distance from each other, and remove feces and seed casings from below feeders regularly.

The lid separates from the base so the reservoir can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher; for extra sanitizing, use a solution of nine parts water to one part bleach every two weeks, as recommended by the National Audubon Society.
This feeder doesn't include a built-in bee guard, but optional nectar guard tips are available separately and fit over the feeding ports to block insects while still letting hummingbirds reach the syrup.
This hanging hummingbird feeder holds 12 oz (354 mL) of syrup, a size suited to medium- to high-traffic areas where several hummingbirds may visit through the day.
Yes, a perch wraps around the base of the feeder so hummingbirds can rest while they feed instead of hovering the whole time, which helps them conserve energy.
