Duncraft Butter-fi Butterfly Feeder

Patience is key. Hold the feeder very still near flowers or areas where butterflies are already active. It helps to wear bright colors like red, yellow, or orange, which attract butterflies, and avoid sudden movements once they approach.

You can use a simple homemade nectar solution of one part white granulated sugar to nine parts water. Avoid using honey, artificial sweeteners, or red dye, as these can be harmful to butterflies.

Yes, the Butter-fi is designed as a dual-use system, so the necessary hardware to mount it to your window is included. You can easily switch between holding it in your hand and attaching it to the glass.

To prevent mold and bacteria growth, you should rinse and refill the feeder every two to three days, or more frequently during hot weather. Because it is made of simple plastic, it is easy to wash with warm, soapy water.

Yes, 0.5 ounces is plenty for a single butterfly or a small group. Since butterflies consume very small amounts of nectar at a time, this size is ideal for keeping the solution fresh without wasting large amounts of nectar.
