Why Bee Guards Are Essential:
Protect Hummingbirds:
Bees can overwhelm hummingbird feeders, preventing hummingbirds from accessing the nectar. Bee guards create a physical barrier that bees cannot navigate while allowing hummingbirds' long beaks to reach through.
Reduce Nectar Waste:
When bees swarm feeders, they can contaminate and deplete nectar supplies quickly. Bee guards help preserve your nectar and reduce the frequency of refills.
Maintain Feeder Performance:
Damaged or missing bee guards compromise your feeder's effectiveness. Fresh replacement guards restore full functionality to your Perky-Pet feeder.
Easy Maintenance:
The snap-open design makes cleaning simple, helping you maintain a hygienic feeding environment for hummingbirds.
How Bee Guards Work:
The raised cage design creates a protective barrier around the feeding port. The openings are sized specifically for hummingbird beaks—long and thin enough to reach through the guard to the nectar below—while preventing bees with their shorter proboscis from accessing the feeding ports. The natural flower shape attracts hummingbirds visually while the physical barrier deters bees mechanically.
Maintenance Tips:
- Replace bee guards when they become cracked, damaged, or discolored
- Clean bee guards weekly during peak feeding season
- Snap open guards for thorough cleaning with warm soapy water
- Inspect guards regularly for wear and tear
- Keep spare guards on hand for quick replacement
- Clean entire feeder, including bee guards, at least twice weekly
