Bees, bees and more bees. Don't buy this feeder!

I bought 2 of these for my hummingbirds and after one week I had to take them down. Their design allows for bees to get to the sugar solution, and they almost drove the hummingbirds away. I changed the sugar solution ratio and moved the hangers to a shaded area to try to discourage the bees but nothing worked. If this sounds familiar, don't lose hope. Just purchase a feeder where the openings are facing upward so no sugar solution can drip out, and the bees will get discouraged and leave. With my new feeder, I can watch the hummingbirds feeding without the bees to harass them.
