THE HUMMTM
No Cleaning. No Mess.TM
The DISPOSABLE, RECYCLABLE Hummingbird Feeding System
Here is what the world-renowned Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology said about THE HUMMTM in August 2008:
"The HUMM was developed to
avoid the frequent cleanings most hummingbird feeders require, by
storing home-made sugar water/nectar in a recyclable plastic beverage
bottle. Any recyclable soda bottle can fit into the red plastic holder.
This makes hummingbird care much easier for the birdwatcher and safer
for the birds, because there's no chance for harmful mold and bacteria
to build up, and no need to add artificial red coloring to the
solution. The easier it is to feed hummingbirds, the more people can do
it!"
Here's How THE HUMMTM works: Quick, Easy, Safer for the Birds!
The premise of THE HUMMTM is revolutionary, yet simple:
Hummingbirds Need and Deserve a Clean Feeder, and Fresh Nectar
--Birding experts say that feeders should be cleaned and nectar changed at least every 3-5 days
--If not, mold and bacteria can build up, which can be harmful or even fatal to the birds
However, Cleaning a Feeder is a Nasty, Time-consuming Chore
--So, many people do not clean their feeders regularly
THE HUMMTM Changes That, Simply and Economically. Here's How It Works:
1. FILL IT:
Rinse out a used 12, 16, or 20 oz. plastic beverage bottle and fill with THE HUMM'sTM safe and easy nectar recipe, which never uses red dyes or preservatives.
2. TWIST IT:
Twist bottle cap feeder onto plastic beverage bottle, tighten firmly but DO NOT over-tighten. Insert the tabs of the yellow bottle cap feeder into receiving slots at base of red hanger and snap shut.
3. HANG IT:
At the desired location, invert the hanger and hang. The red hanger attracts hummers naturally, without the use of red dyes
4. RECYCLE IT:
Every 3 to 5 days (or even more frequently in very hot climates), simply remove the used beverage bottle and single-use bottle cap feeder and throw in the recycling bin. Make fresh nectar and start again--that's it!
