Aspects Nectar Guard Tips

I tried these after getting bees and other bugs in my feeders.  Very pleased with the results; more hummingbirds and no bugs. Plus, they're less expensive than some of the other brands.  Switching to feeders without yellow on them also helps.  Bugs are attracted to yellow, like on flypaper and sticky traps.

This is a handy item if you are a plant lover!  It's always a challenge to know what your plants are needing and overwatering can cause so many issues for your plants.  You must be sure to push the moniter down to the root area to get a true reading.  Be sure to wipe off the tubing after each use.  One thing to be careful about is the amount of pressure you use when pushing moniter into the earth.  Monitor is fragile and could break easily in hard packed earth.  Also keep back of packaging as it has a guideline of levels for many of the more common house plants.  I almost through packaging away but luckily noticed in time.

This hummingbird nectar is great - no artificial color and the hummingbirds love it.  It is so easy to use and you can mix up as much or as little as you want to - keeps the nectar fresh and attracts a lot of hummingbirds!

I live in a rural area and deer regularly eat my tulips and daylily flowers and raccoons dig in flower pots. I've used a single predator guard for about two years and just added two more to expand coverage. I also use spray on repellant for the dawn visitors. The Predator Guards are more effective than anything else I've tried.

These piping tips work great. You must use the right consistency buttercream with them for all the detail to show on each flower.  Other than than that, you just apply even pressure and release to form each bud. Good weight, nice construction. Love them.

There seems to be a vaccuum created that keeps the nectar from flowing down.  I have a cheap plastic feeder that the hummingbirds seem to prefer.

The only improvement I can think of would be spring resistantce like the friskas. It helps clip in right spaces and more rapidly. Otherwise they are terrific; especially for sap/oily plants.

In years past I have cut and stapled plastic plates around the hooks on my hummingbird feeders to keep the rain from filling up the ant moats, running over and diluting the food.  Not an ideal solution!  These are wonderful and should last a long time.  They are powder coated steel and appear to be well made.  On a couple of these I used the hooks provided with the guard, but on a couple I just unscrewed the hook on the bottom of my ant moat and attached the guard directly to the bottom of the moat.  Either way, they  beat the heck out of plastic plates.

Do not use red nectar! The artificial coloring causes burth defects and health problems for the hummingbirds. Buy clear nectar or make your own - 4 cups water to 1 cup sugar (regular granulated white sugar).

I bought two of these since I have so many fruit trees in my back yard. I'm only using one right now since only the peaches are the concern to keep guarded.  As soon as the nectarines and pomegranates start to show fruit, the other one will be brought out to protect them. I need to keep on the most sensitive setting to fend off the squirrels and that's fine, unless the wind picks up enough to make the trees move too much and set it off. Looking forward to a good harvest this year thanks to the scarecrow! I told /showed it to some coworkers and they are planning to order some for their gardens and fruit tree sentries.

I've been using these ant guards for years. Unlike others, they use an insecticide barrier inside the shell, rather than a water-filled moat. So there is no bother with keeping a moat filled.

My one gripe is that the plastic hook is a bit thick to get through small screw eyes, but this is not a serious shortcoming. It just takes a little work, or you can use a wire tie.

Recommended.

I never realized how much thought went into designing a bird feeder.  Apparently you have to worry about ants and bees trying to get a piece of the hummingbirds' action.  Well, ants get defeated by a "moat" filled with water at the top of the feeder so ants cannot get to the feeder from the point of suspension.  Bees get stymied by the design of the feeding "flowers".  The unit is bright red with yellow "flowers" and I guess that attracts hummingbirds (we used to get hummingbirds here and it will take a while before they find there way back here).  A small sachet of concentrated syrup is included - but if you want to save money you can make your own with confectioners sugar.  You need to clean this a couple of times a week because the feeding solution is not strong enough to keep germs at bay.  Clean up is easy.

This appears to be great product. However, I gave it as a gift, so can't actually know how it will hold up, etc. I like that it's glass and not plastic, except for the top and base. (Healthier for the birds.)  I like that it has an ant guard and that bees can't get into the feeder.  Since the glass is uniformly wide, it should be easy to clean, but not sure of the ease of popping off the little flowerettes for cleaning.  And, the price was reasonable. All in all, it seemed like a good purchase.

4.5 Stars: This MUST be used with a Liquid Feeder or Universal Feeder attachment for your garden hose.  It cannot be used direct from bottle.  I deducted half a star some of the instructions/information provided is in a light blue shade which is close to the color of the bottle itself and makes reading difficult in spots.  You use this once a week on flowering trees and shrubs for longer lasting and bigger blooms.  This is specifically for acid-loving plants but I used it across my front which is made up of azaleas, rhododendrons and others.  I think two of them are pictured on the front and I hope it works across the board as my shrubs blend into each other.  After two weeks of use, I see little improvement but will report back after continued use.

A good product. Has a single fill tube, and a drawstring closure at the top.
These plant protectors do what they say they will do. They create a mini-greenhouse.
They protected my plants from a few cool nights, and some very strong winds.
Be sure the ground you plan to use these is flat. Any significant slope will cause
the EZ wall to tip over, in which case, you will need stakes to hold up the walls.

I noticed that the hummingbirds had been spending a long time at the feeder.  I think these guard tips were keeping the birds from getting the nectar easily.  These tips were also very hard to clean.  I would not recommend these at all.

I ordered one 16 ounce feeder and it worked great, so I ordered another one. The top on the second one doesn't snap on tightly, so it easily leaks, which attracts bees. I am still using it, but put much less nectar in it than the 16 ounces.
I am going to order another one and if the top doesn't snap on right, I will send it back right away.

In other words, if I were to give a review on just the first one I ordered, I'd give it a five star rating. It's really easy to clean. Good design. Moat works well to keep ants away.
