Hi there, 

Hope all are having a nice summer. Mine has been great. 25 life birds in Hawaii. 

Anyway, question, will ants getting into and around the hummingbird feeder keep the birds away. Yesterday, a hummingbird came to my feeder, check it out, and left (not even a sip). After inspection, I noticed lots of ants. 

I'd think they'd like the extra, work free, morsel...
