Customer Reviews

No more bees, no drips, a snap to clean!
I initially bought a classic "perky pet" feeder, with the glass jar draining down into several feeding "flowers." Despite the bee guards, I often saw yellowjackets hovering around it. They squeezed themselves along the underside of the bee guards to get dribbles that leaked out of the flowers. Also, I learned that bees are drawn to yellow (the color of the plastic flowers). I'm sure ants would have found the dribbles before long, as well - there were even splatters on my deck.

Also, there was no way to be sure the plastic base was really clean when I refilled it. I've heard you can poison hummers with fungus, if the feeders are not cleaned thoroughly every 3-4 days. Fungus just loves sugar water.

I looked at some hummingbird afficionado sites and apparently the hummzinger models are the way to go. The simple construction is very easy to scrub out; no hidden recesses for fungus to grow. There is no yellow on it, so less attractive to bees. I have not seen one yellowjacket since installing this! No drips, and bees can't reach nectar through the openings.

It should be refilled even when it is not empty, both because of fungus growth (I have found fungus after waiting too long), and also because it seems a bit deep for hummers to reach the bottom, unless they are a long-billed variety. (I have Anna's hummers).

I had some trouble getting the lid off for cleaning, untill I realized I could just use the brass hanger to push the base down while pulling the lid upwards.

It's worth the frequent cleaning when I can sit in my living room watching the birds enjoy their nectar. This feeder makes the maintenance as easy as possible.

Attracts hummers and easy to clean
This feeder is very effective at drawing in hummingbirds, probably because it looks like a big, red flower; and it is easy to clean--which other feeders I have tried are not. It also has an effective ant trap, and it doesn't dribble, so it won't attract yellowjackets. A downside is its small capacity, so it's most appropriate for locations that are not overrun with hummingbirds. (If you put out this feeder in Southern Arizona, you'd be refilling it every hour.)

3rd try is the charm
After going through a series of hummingbird feeders over the last several years, I have put the other models in the basement and have 2 of these HummZingers up. And here in the NE US in late August I am enjoying "hummingbird wars" outside as 4 or 5 RTHU jockey for time at the feeders.

As other reviewers have observed, this model solves the cleaning, bee, and ant problems inherent in most other designs. They work as advertised and the capacity is more than sufficient for my modest troop of hummers. A very good product.
