Our Customers report best results using only mineral oil coated inside the cup but oil can be floated on water to prevent rapid evaporation. Fill 1/8 or less full of water & float some oil or coat the inside with oil to leave a minimal amount inside. Be sure to use only mineral oil as other food oils attract grease ants or dry out & get tacky, thereby allowing ants to cross the moat. Oour Copper Wire Stake Hummingbird Feeders with the built in Ant Moats work the same way, so use water & or mineral oil in the built in Ant Moat. Be sure to check feeders & moats often to replace the water & after rainy or windy days, since moats may overflow from rain or spill over in the wind if left out on trees or in the open. Never use pesticides or other poisons as these can contaminate the feeder & harm the birds. Copper Wire Ant Moat With Red Glass Crystals For Hummingbird Feeders
