Cool the Mixture:  Allow the sugar water to cool to room temperature before filling your hummingbird feeders.

Important Tips: Do Not Use Honey, Brown Sugar, or Artificial Sweeteners: These can be harmful to hummingbirds. Stick to plain white granulated sugar.

Avoid Red Food Coloring: It's unnecessary and can be harmful. Most feeders have red parts that attract hummingbirds.

Clean Feeders Regularly To prevent mold and harmful bacteria, clean your feeders thoroughly with hot water and a brush every few days, more frequently in hot weather.
