Attracting hummingbirds to your feeder effectively

Strategic Placement: Position your hummingbird feeder in a location that is easily visible to hummingbirds

Color Choices: Opt for feeders that are red or have red accents, as hummingbirds are attracted to this color.

Fresh Nectar: Ensure you use fresh nectar in your feeder. Homemade nectar can be made by mixing four parts water to one part white granulated sugar. 

Regular Refills: Keep the feeder filled with fresh nectar, especially during peak feeding times like spring and summer.

Cleanliness: Maintain a clean feeder to prevent mold and bacteria growth, which can deter hummingbirds. 

Add Perches: Place small perches near the feeder to give hummingbirds a place to rest while they feed. 

Plant Hummingbird-Friendly Flowers: Supplement your feeder with a variety of flowers that hummingbirds love, such as bee balm, salvia
