Well, crap, entropy really is nature's tendency if we're not constantly maintaining every little thing. Better go tell my mom in law...at least she uses the clear stuff but didn't know anything about the rest!
We used to get a ton of hummingbirds too, but since we added bird seed feeders and see a lot more sparrows and stuff, we haven't seen any hummingbirds lately. I hope they're okay. :(
Yeah I learned from experience 😔
~~And I only say to use the clear stuff because it makes cleaning much easier. I’m sure it’s perfectly fine otherwise.~~ edit: this is wrong, apparently; the red dye is in fact bad for them.
But yeah it really needs regular cleaning. It may look OK on the outside, but those holes fill up quick.
I use an app called Sweepy to help me stay on track with what needs cleaning and when it needs it, otherwise I’d totally space it.
