Place this Near Your Window Hummingbird Feeder
If you enjoy watching hummingbirds and have feeders in your yard to attract them, why not also encourage them to stay a while and nest there too?
A new product called Hummer Helper is specifically designed for hummingbirds. It encourages them to nest naturally and nearby, thus increasing hummer population in your immediate area. It has even been endorsed by The Hummingbird Society.
If you have a window hummingbird feeder, hang the hummer helper nearby to encourage tiny jewels to set up house in your backyard. You’ll likely see more hummingbirds at feeders as fledglings begin feeding as well. Since hummingbirds practice “site fidelity” there’s a strong chance you’ll see a greater increase in hummingbirds at your feeders each year.

Window Hummingbird Feeders and Ladies MakeUp??
Now what in the world could ladies makeup have to do with window hummingbird feeders you might ask? Using red lipstick? Extra blush perhaps? None of the above. The secret is in the mascara! Yes, the tiny spiral brush from your (your wife’s) mascara is the absolute perfect size for cleaning tiny feeding ports on hummingbird feeders.
It’s easy to miss this part of the feeder when rinsing and refilling with nectar. But it’s really important to keep these openings clean as bacteria builds up from microorganisms on hummingbirds’ bills. Keeping feeding ports clean helps to ensure your hummingbirds’ health.
Of course, be sure to wash the brush well before using it for this purpose, removing all evidence of makeup. Running it through the dishwasher may be a good idea too.
