Here's How Often To Refill Hummingbird Feeders So They Keep Coming Back
By NICK POLISHCHUK
Hummingbirds are constantly on the lookout for food due to their high metabolism, which requires them to consume a significant amount to retain weight, function, and survive.
To make sure these tiny birds continue returning to your garden, it is important to clean and refill the feeder at least every other day in hot weather and weekly
during winter.
This frequency helps prevent mold growth and ensures the nectar stays fresh. If you notice the feeder emptying quickly, consider refilling it more often to meet the
birds' needs.
