Directions
Hummingbird Food,This is such an easy recipe. I don’t add any food color to this as I’ve heard it’s not good for the little birds. Do not use honey or other types of sugar, the birds cannot digest them. Also if you have trouble with ants you can now get a little item that has ant repellent in it that doesn’t harm the birds. I have one on my hummer feeder.,Please correct the recipe to ONLY refined white sugar. Do NOT use organic sugar – it is toxic to hummingbirds (as is brown sugar and powdered sugar).,Save the poor little birds.Use the formula 4 parts water 1 part white sugar for crying out loud. Boil the water to kill the bacteria. Stop the experiments.
