Attract more birds to your garden with The Ant-Mote™


The Ant-Mote™ turns your hummingbird feeder pole into a birding oasis. While hummingbirds are territorial with one another, we have observed many types of birds coexisting happily around a feeder with The Ant-Mote™ installed

Benefits of using The Ant-Mote™

The Ant-Mote™ is designed for a ⅝” pole. That diameter pole works perfectly with a majority of top-rated nectar feeders for hummingbirds, oriole, and butterflies. Mounting directly to a pole is much more secure, more wind resistant, and you are less likely to find your feeder laying on the ground one morning. 

Non-mechanical mounting makes it easy to position and install. No tools are required and a tight seal prevents ants from climbing up the pole. 

No concerns about feeders not hanging straight. It’s easy to remove your feeder for cleaning and filling. No removal of the hanging hook when putting a feeder in the dishwasher. No concerns about stripping the feeder hook and bolt.

Compatible poles are readily available from most hardware and big box stores. We have also partnered with Erva to offer poles specifically designed for The Ant-Mote™. The ⅝” thin profile tube almost disappears in your garden. Multiple poles at multiple heights can easily be placed in your garden to attract more hummingbirds, who are often territorial.
