The best means to feed hummingbirds is by using a humming bird feeder. It must be located far above the ground so that predators such as squirrels cannot feed from it. Attracting humming birds to your feeder is best accomplished by a combination of sugar and water. This solution lasts the longest without spoiling. If you use honey or molasses they will breed microbes and germs too fast. With a modest forethought you can guarantee victory in attracting humming birds to your backyard, by providing them with the sugar solution for their energy requirements.
