Ants and Hummingbird Feeders

I can't seem to get rid of the ants on a hummingbird feeder and with this drought it's really hard to keep a mote full of water. I am using a scrap of jewelry wire to hang the feeder from. So far it's working! It is too small for the ants to travel on.

Go to Wild Birds Unlimited either their store or on line and get an ant moat. It is a cup of water which you hang the the feeder under it. I have one and it works.
