Hummingbird Feeder – Cloudy Liquid
Q: My homemade nectar for hummingbirds turns cloudy after a few days. What causes this?
A: My guess is that your feeder is dirty when you fill it and the sugar water is rapidly fermenting. I wash mine in the dishwasher and scrub the feeding tube with a toothbrush. The liquid stays clear for a week.
