Product Description
Our newest hummingbird feeder the HummZinger Ultra combines patented Nectar-guard tips with a built-in ant moat. Nectar-Guard tips are flexible membranes attached to the HummZinger Ultra's feed ports. These unique tips prohibit entry from flying insects while allowing unrestricted feeding by hummingbirds. Also, the built-in ant moat stops crawling insects in their tracks before they can reach the nectar. These two patented features combine to give our HummZinger Ultra the ultimate in protection from both flying and crawling insects while you can enjoy the hummingbirds. Lifetime Guarantee

Keeps out bugs! October 25, 2008
Gregory Detweiler (Cincinnati, OH USA)
I bought this feeder after having lots of trouble with bees, wasps, and spiders in my previous bottle-style feeder. This feeder has worked wonderfully, and all the bees and wasps quickly gave up trying to get food from this feeder, even without the included "NectarGuard" tips on the inside of the feeding holes. The built-in ant moat has also been successful so far at keeping out spiders, plus it has built-in overflow holes to prevent it from overfilling due to rain. The low-profile shape reduces wind resistance so it doesn't swing around too much, although it should be noted that the wide, shallow nectar basin will still spill if tilted far enough. I haven't had it spill once so far, though. The feeding ports have a slot cut into them as they extend downwards, so the birds' beaks won't get stuck in the holes, a problem on some other feeders. The plastic base is some sort of acrylic, not polycarbonate as some other reviews suggested, so I can't speak to the longevity of it yet. However, it is sturdy, simple, and easy to assemble/disassemble, with no gaskets or wetted junctions where it might leak. Cleaning is the best of any hummingbird feeder I have ever seen... the top comes off, and the two halves of the unit are completely open and exposed for cleaning.. couldn't be easier. The hanging hook is very sturdy, brass, and balances the feeder well. There also is an option to post-mount it instead, but I haven't tried it. Birds seem to like it, especially without having to fight wasps all the time.
Fantastic Hummingbird Feeder September 30, 2008
Cara Adams (Los Angeles, CA)
This is the best hummingbird feeder. It is easy to use, comes with a great recipe, and it is bringing all the little birdies to the yard (much to the annoyance to my inside cats!)This is a great product, keep up the good work.
Aspect Hummingbird Feeder September 15, 2008
Rich S (Geneva, IL)
This is one of the best hummingbird feeders I've come across! First, it doesn't take large amount of nectar to fill, and then waste, because most of it wasn't eaten after a week; second, the nectar is held in because there is no gravity pushing the nectar on openings or seams making it drip out, as in the "bottle" types; third, it's incredibly easy to dismount, dismantle and clean - just pop the red top off; fourth, it has a built in insect moat; and fifth, the new nectar guards, if you choose to install, really do dissuade the wasps, bees, etc. from hanging around, and the hummingbirds had no trouble adapting to them.
The only thing I would improve would be to give the moat more capacity - in direct sun it dries out in a few days, so water needs to be replaced to be effective.
My Hummzinger September 7, 2008
Diana H. Mcmillian (Charlotte, NC)
I have had dozens of Hummingbird feeders but never one as good as this Hummzinger. Before I got the Hummzinger I was feeding the ants and bees more than the Hummingbirds. The bees would actually chase the birds away from the feeder. I bet I had dozens of bees around feeder at all times. I saw this Hummzinger and thought what have I got to lose so I ordered it and I LOVE IT.....no more ants and no more bees.. The Hummingbirds love it and so do I. This is by far the best investment I have made this year. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to feed the birds and not the bees or ants. Great product. This would make the perfect gift for anyone who feeds Hummingbirds..I will be giving as gifts and hope someone gets me another one as a gift...hint, hint...lol
Got rid of the yellow jackets! September 6, 2008
Paul (Maryland, USA)
At the end of each summer I have swarms of yellow jackets take over my hummingbird feeders and the little buggers chase the hummers away.
This year I had enough!
After a little online research and reading other reviews of the Hummzinger Ultra product I decided to try it out.
I put up the Hummzinger and the hummingbirds figured it out within hours (even with the little rubber tip guards installed). I watched day after day as number of yellow jackets around the Hummzinger decreased. After a week there were ZERO yellow jackets hanging around!
If you have yellow jacket issues you must get this feeder!
I've also noticed that the hummers will even sit on this feeder every so often, where as on my old feeders they fed and flew away. Another unexpected benefit has been the Hummzinger feeder has been much easier to clean than my old feeders.
I'm buying a second Hummzinger in the winter to replace my other feeder - so I'll be ready for the spring!
