We’ve had hummingbirds visiting our feeder since buying this and they will not feed off of it. They do not like this nectar which is very disappointing. Money wasted. Will be be looking up a homemade sugar water recipe.

We're sorry to hear about your experience! Birds can take some time to adjust to a new source of food. You may want to give them a few days to become acclimated.

We like this because on the farm it is ready to use and no refrigeration needed-- also no dyes.
Making your own is good but if time or out in the field is an issue --- this works well.
No dyes, no refrigeration, easy READY to use

READ LABEL! Perky-Pet Nectar worthless 10% Sugar
Retuned this crap. Internet search states that 4 cups of water to 1 cup sugar is the perfect, healthy solution to replicate flower nectar that hummingbirds find in nature. That 4:1 ratio yields 4.5 cups of nectar mixture, with a 22% sucrose solution by volume. Any less than that and you are starving the birds of the energy they need from the solution volume they consume. That is why so many reviews say their backyard birds take one taste of the Perky-Pet 10% sucrose solution & never return.

Specially formulated to feed hummingbirds, I bought this to feed them when the flowers are not enough for them to feast. I also bought 2 jars to help with the feed of the hummingbirds. It’s ready to use not mixing required with other liquids, just put it in the jars and hanging in a nearby place to the plants for the birds to feast.

Hummingbirds Won't Touch IT
I purchased this clear product from the Glendale Home Depot and used it in my hummingbird feeder. I went from having a large group of hummingbirds everyday to nothing. No one bird. It has been a week and a half and the feeder is still full to the top. I guess I just dump it down the drain and chalk it up as a loss. What a bummer.

Way more than I need
I received this product for free to review.
The quantity is more than I need and the leftovers only last thirty days. If you have several feeders and lots of hummingbirds, you might be able to use the whole bottle without the nectar spoiling. One feeder uses about 20% of the bottle. Please see the attached picture.
In the future I will just make as much as I need by boiling water and adding sugar.
It is still early in the season so I can't tell if the humming birds prefer it more or not.
Otherwise it is pretty easy to use. Just open the top and pour it in your feeder.
We are lucky, where we live there are hummingbirds, lots of them. This is the one product that draws them every time. I used a mix that a wild bird store had suggested, and while I had a few hummers visit, it isn't like Perky-Pet where I had hummers the very next day. This is so easy to use, premixed, just pour in to a hummingbird feeder and hang. Then enjoy!!
This product is easy to mix,lasts a long time and the birds love it.

Totally unnecessary product
Please don’t bother with this silly product. There is nothing easier in the world than making hummingbird food. It’s also cheaper and no plastic bottle need be discarded (hooray!). Wildlife organizations say the best thing for the hummers is a mixture of water and cane sugar — boiling tap water is not necessary plus they do not recommend any red dye. So save some money and make it yourself — 1:4 ratio, so 2 cups water and 1/2 cup cane sugar& mix voilà!

Great for quick filling of feeders without mixing. One bottle lasts us for about three to four months.
