Thanks sol! That's probably a good reminder. I had thought of using honey
years ago, but a little knowledge gained via a Google quickly squashed that
idea.

Regarding ratio, anywhere from 1:1 to 5:1 water to white sugar works well.
If you have a lot of hummers and have to refill daily or more, a sweeter
solution will reduce their feeding (as it's the sucrose that's feeding them,
not the water). I've heard, though not tested, that at 5:1 the wasps lose
interest in the feeder if you have that problem.
