Pretty Parasol Ant Moat

For those who adore hummingbirds and enjoy feeding them, an accessory like the ant moat is of utmost importance. Sweet and sticky nectar is a real attractant for pesky ants, and can easily ruin the whole experience of feeding and watching these flying jewels.

By adding an ant moat to hummingbird or other nectar feeders, you’ll stop ants dead in their tracks. Ants can’t swim-so they’re never able to cross the moat as long as there’s water in it.

Standard ant moats will serve the purpose well, but Parasol ant moats add grace and charm to pretty hummingbird feeders. Parasol ant baffles are also available for staked hummingbird feeders and will keep ants away from nectar by using a touch of petroleum jelly on the underside.

Whether a hanging or staked type feeder, an ant moat or baffle helps to provide a better birding experience for you and feathered friends!
