How do i keep bee’s out of, humming bird feeder?

Sworms of them!!!

Are you sure you have the correct amount of sugar in it..if it is too strong, it will attract bees. Make sure you have a solution of 4 parts water to 1 part sugar. They also sell bee guards to be added to feeders.

  1. No way this I know if, but I bought the beeless feeder.. The liquid is too far for the bees to stick their tongue in, but the hummers can.
