I have hummers every year, I can get ants and bees away from the feeders, but I have the black and white bald face hornets, they are really nasty! I have tried smaller holes and moving the feeders, but I just can't get rid of them and the hummers are afraid of them big time, any suggestions?

I use the paper wasp nest that scares them, they are afraid of a huge nest so they stay away, just hang up on a near by spot. also you can blow air into a paper bag and tie the end and hang it, works also.
I take a brown paper bag and put Walmart bags inside to make a big ball twist the bag and hang it up.with in a day or so their gone.
I hung up those paper wasp nest and they did not deter the black and white hornets at all.
I put Avon's Skin So Soft around the little indentations that hold jelly for the orioles. The big black and white bees give up in about 3 days. They need to stand on the feeder and don't like the oil.
I have the exact same problem. Bald faced hornets have taken over my feeders. They chase the hummers away. I have no idea how to get rid of them. I can't find their nest.
