<br />
<br />
I found the following information on Facebook.<br />
<br />
☆☆☆☆☆PLEASE READ CAPTION☆☆☆☆☆<br />
<br />
The store bought nectar is junk!! Food coloring is petroleum based ☠ that is not good for humans, let alone a tiny bird that weighs less than a nickel! It causes a slow death. ☠<br />
It's filled with chemicals, dyes, preservatives and petroleum based.<br />
I used the red stuff 4 to 5 years ago. The minute I found out how deadly it is to hummingbirds, I changed out the nectar immediately!! Cleaned my feeder real good and I Made my own with sugar water only.<br />
Sugar water is all they need. 4 to 1 ratio .<br />
Example... 4 cups water to 1 cup pure cane granulated sugar. No dyes needed.<br />
<br />
Boiling is not necessary but it is a personal decision based on your quality of water. Sugar will dissolve in cool water. Just like when you order unsweetened iced tea at a restaurant then add sugar.... It dissolves. Or like when you make lemonade... you don't boil your water for the sugar to dissolve. Chlorine evaporates once it exposed to the air. If you choose to boil because you have concerns about bacteria and contaminates in water, don't boil more than two minutes. This will prevent chemicals such as flouride from becoming even more concentrated in the water. Also measure water AFTER boiling and add sugar then, not before. This will ensure an accurate sugar/water ratio.<br />
Boiling will not give your feeder extra hang time. The nectar becomes contaminated as soon as the birds beak touches the nectar.<br />
<br />
●● DO NOT USE ANYTHING BUT PURE CANE SUGAR! ●●<br />
Raw, organic, turbinado and brown sugar are harmful to hummingbirds. You should only make your hummingbird nectar with granulated white sugar. Cane sugar is preferable, but beet sugar is also acceptable. Don’t use confectioner’s sugar either, as it contains an anti-caking agent.<br />
Raw, turbinado and organic sugar is made by taking sugar cane and squeezing out the juice. The juice is then evaporated and spun in a turbine (hence the name “turbinado”) to produce the sugar crystals. These crystals are a golden color and are rich in vitamins and minerals. This is great for humans, but NOT for the hummingbirds. One of the minerals these sugars contain is iron, and hummingbirds have very little tolerance for it. Brown sugar is white sugar that has had molasses added to it. Molasses is rich in iron. Agave nectar also contains iron. Not good for the hummingbirds at all!!<br />
<br />
Hummingbirds, being very tiny birds with fast metabolisms, must eat a lot of food to survive. Since they are so small, they are susceptible to excess dietary iron buildup in their system. The oversupply of iron is stored in the liver and is toxic to liver cells.<br />
<br />
DO NOT USE HONEY!<br />
A honey water solution served up in hummingbird feeders can quickly become toxic and deadly. Honey rapidly ferments and also cultures a deadly bacterium. Contrary to popular belief, honey is not "more natural" than the cane sugar that is sold as white sugar. Honey has been chemically altered by honey bees: it is flower nectar and whatever ever else the honey bee ingested, digested, and spit back out again. Honey is nothing like the sucrose found in flower nectar and white sugar.<br />
Again, plain white table sugar dissolved in water in a four-to-one solution is about as close to real flower nectar as you can get.<br />
<br />
TO CLEAN YOUR FEEDERS:<br />
Be sure to use hot water and white vinegar when you clean your feeders. Rinse Well!!<br />
🚫 NO SOAPS or detergents of any kind! 🚫 It leaves a residue the birds can taste and it may cause them to get sick.<br />
Clean the feeder each time you take it down to put fresh nectar in it.<br />
Once a month you can use one part bleach to 10 parts hot water. Be sure to rinse well.<br />
<br />
Use an 🐜 ANT MOAT.<br />
NEVER USE ANY GREASE, OR PETROLEUM PRODUCTS ANYWHERE NEAR THE FEEDER, POLE, ETC. An 🐜ANT MOAT is very easy to make and safe for the hummingbirds. Just fill 1/2 to 3/4 of the way up with plain water. Since ants can't swim, they can't get to your feeder. I have ants in my yard, but never have had a 1 on any of my 22 feeders.<br />
An 🐜 Ant Moat is a reliable first line of defense against ants attempting to infiltrate hummingbird feeders. When filled with water, the 🐜 Ant Moat forms a barrier that keeps ants away from the irresistible nectar of the hummingbird feeders.<br />
<br />
Here is a video I made last year to MAKE AN 🐜 ANT MOAT.<br />

No meeting October 11, 3017. We talked about it, Ruth, Mimi, Cindy and I, but I don't think we have the energy. I don't even know if the school is open. BTW we lost our house. It's being demolished this week. <br />
<br />
Our group is open. I'm not up to organizing a meeting, but feel free to have one without me. I probably won't be very active in the next few months. <br />
<br />
Hope you survived Harvey!<br />

<span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was sent this article from BioClarity on herbs you can grow that are good for skin care. It's a nice article, well written and informative. Some of the herbs will even grow in Rockport! I'm including a sample from the article as well as the <a href="https://www.bioclarity.com/pages/17-plants-you-can-grow-at-home-for-radiant-skin/" target="_blank">link</a>.</span></h3>
<br />
<h3 style="background-color: #f8f8f8; background-image: url(https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1315/7579/files/ingestible-and-topical.png?v=1497287158); background-position: right center; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; box-sizing: inherit; color: #04af4b; display: inline-block; font-family: Merriweather, serif; font-size: 24px; font-weight: 400; height: 47px; line-height: 47px; margin-bottom: 24px; margin-top: 0px; padding: 0px 80px 0px 0px;">
Cilantro</h3>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Next time you’re chopping up cilantro for your favorite guacamole or salsa recipe, consider the benefits this herb offers for your skin. Eating cilantro provides plenty of health benefits, including decreased cholesterol and digestive issue relief, but it can also pack a powerful punch when it comes to skin care. Cilantro is jam-packed with antioxidants that fight free radicals, and provides a potent dose of Vitamin C. Cilantro has antibacterial and antifungal properties, and can help soothe inflammation for those with acne-prone skin.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ingestible Benefits: Throw cilantro into your favorite salad or dish to soothe your digestive system and decrease high cholesterol levels.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Topical Benefits: Grind coriander seeds and mix the powder into your favorite DIY mask to take advantage of its soothing, anti-inflammatory benefits.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Growing Tips: This aromatic herb does best in sunny or lightly shaded areas in southern zones. Make sure your soil is moist and well-draining. As you begin to plant, be sure to leave around seven inches between each seed; if you want to maintain your fresh cilantro, sow them every two to three weeks.</span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f8f8f8; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif;"></span></span><br />

Bay Leaf</h3>
<span style="background-color: #f8f8f8; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; font-size: 14px;"></span><div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Bay leaves can help detoxify the body, minimize the effects of aging on your skin, combat bacterial infections, reduce inflammation, and speed up healing. This wonder leaf deserves a spot of honor in your botanical skin care solutions. True bay leafs come from the Laurel tree and can be ground into a fine powder for use in home skin care remedies.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ingestible Benefits: Toss a few bay leaves into your favorite soup or stew and take advantage of its ability to soothe an upset stomach, facilitate efficient digestion, boost heart health, and regulate blood sugar levels.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Topical Benefits: Grind up a few bay leaves and apply topically with your favorite moisturizer. Bay leaves contain unique phytonutrients that can reduce irritation and alleviate joint pain when applied topically. Apply bay leaves topically to blemishes and skin lesions to encourage healing and get smooth radiant skin.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Growing Tips: You can actually grow bay laurel in a pot, just be sure it gets enough sunlight and is planted in a well-draining container. Be sure to water your laurel deeply, less frequently—the soil should dry out a little bit in between waterings.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">

Cucumbers</h3>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Fresh cucumbers contain plenty of antioxidants, helping you combat wrinkles and prevent sun damage. Cucumbers contain important compounds called cucumerin and cucurbitacins that can help fight inflammation and minimize the effects of aging. They also pack a mean punch of Vitamins C and K, antioxidants that can help fight dark circles under your eyes. The Vitamin B5 found in this crunchy produce helps the skin retain moisture, while silica found in cucumbers promotes collagen production, which can help combat wrinkles.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ingestible Benefits: Chop up cucumbers in your favorite salad and munch on this crunchy fruit to take advantage of numerous benefits. Eating cucumbers can relieve heartburn, flush out toxins, and nourish your body with plenty of immunity boosting Vitamins, including A, B, and C.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Topical Benefits: Head to any local spa and you’ll find a cucumber-based treatment. Make your own resort spa experience at home by using cucumber juice in your favorite DIY masks. Throw a cucumber in a processor and mix with some lemon juice and sugar for an at-home scrub.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: inherit; color: #666666; font-family: Merriweather, serif; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Growing Tips: Cucumbers are easy to grow, even for novice gardeners. Plant your cucumbers in an area that receives full sun, keep the soil moist, and voila—you’ll have the perfect addition to a summer salad and your next at-home skin care treatment. Cucumbers require steady watering, and using compost and nutrient-rich fertilizer will help yield some delicious produce.</span></div>
