This is an ant moat.
It's purpose is to stop ants from
reaching hummingbird feeders
or others that contain 'sweets'.
moat: typically filled with water
and intended as a defense against attack.
I found the instruction on YouTube
and made it from the lid of a detergent bottle

It looks like a great idea. Let us know if it works! Here in Florida we have flying ants that's why I'm wondering if it will work
ReplyDeleteHello, does it work? Looks like a great idea, the ants can be awful. Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy new week!
ReplyDeleteI have had a feeder or two that came with a moat. I found they worked quite well.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see that working!
ReplyDeleteAnts can be annoying pests, especially at hummingbird feeders.
ReplyDeleteGood idea. I have one of those for my hummingbird feeder, but for some reason I haven't hooked it up yet. I can't find my extra hooks. But the ants haven't been that bad either. Love the hummers!!
ReplyDeleteVery good. I bought mine.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea.
