    Ant protector

    I have not had a chance to use this product, but I am hopeful it will work. I have trouble with ants with one of my feeders getting invaded with ants.

    So clever

    I bought this little gadget as a little treat to myself, as I hated to deal with the ants that somehow found their way into my hummingbird feeder between cleanings. It works just as I hoped and it's so simple. It completely removed the EEWWWW factor from this job. I wish I'd thought of it first!

    Could not use hummingbird feeders last year because of ants. So these might be the answer

    Pretty Moats

    Great to have clear plastic moats that are pretty and light weight. I added red veggie die to attract the hummingbirds rather than color their nectar. Works well!

    Great Ant Moat!

    The ant moats from Kinsman Garden are the best! They are the perfect size (all others I have seen and/or tried are too shallow). The ants cannot get to my feeders. Finches drink from them. The moats are deep enough that water does not evaporate rapidly. Love them!!!

    Great Ant Moat!

    This moat is the best that I have found. Most of the moats are too shallow and have to be filled constantly. Also, I keep fresh water in it because the finches line up to drink from it!

    This moat works very well - no ants in the nectar since I began using it!

    Nifty little piece

    Posted by RJ on Jun 4th 2020

    During migration season, I put out 4-6 Oriole feeders. The remaining time it is Hummingbird feeders. I have used the orange moats for the Orioles-, and the (very small) red moats for the Hummingbird feeders. What I like about these is...they are clear. I can see when they need to be re-filled! And it's kind of interesting that some of the birds use them as drinking sources and 'baths' :)

    No Ants!

    An ingenious little contraption that really works to prevent ants from getting into the nectar.
