1.0 out of 5 stars Convenient but not good for hummingbirds!!, January 15, 2008

This product might be convenient, but I recommend NOT using it. It contains red dye and a preservative, both of which may be damaging to hummingbirds. You do not need red food coloring in nectar in order to attract hummingbirds. Most hummingbird feeders have plenty of red on them to attract the birds. A simple mixture of 4 parts water to 1 part granulated sugar is all that is needed for hummingbird nectar. Never use honey or sugar substitutes. It's simple to make nectar and keep refrigerated and certainly safe for the birds. We prefer safeguarding the health of these little birds rather than the supposed convenience of this product.

5.0 out of 5 stars really attracts, June 30, 2006

I used First Nature Hummingbird Nectar liquid sugar concentrate last year and had 3 or 4 birds at each feeder. This year I couldn't find it at my normal supply store, so I used a different brand of powdered nectar. The birds would come to the feeders, take one sip and fly away. When I found First Nature on Amazon I was thrilled. I ordered several bottles and as soon as it arrived I filled my feeders with First Nature nectar. Within days I was back to 3 or 4 birds at each feeder. It is easy to mix and the concentrate does not need to be stored in the refrigerator.

I have tried several brands of hummingbird food from powders to premix solutions. The birds just taste and fly away and never dine here again. With this concentrate, they return several times a day everyday. This is the only type of food I use anymore. It is the best. Easy to mix, bottle lasts a long time. Hard to find in the stores so I get it here on Amazon.
