Hummingbirds are not only quick and beautiful little birds but are also important pollinators that are beneficial to the health of your yard and garden.
On top of being ecologically important, these territorial and lightning-fast iridescent birds are an absolute joy to watch.
So, to bring more hummingbirds to your yard, you can add a bathing system that they can actually use -- the best of which is a simple water mister.
A garden water mister attracts hummingbirds and waters plants, which is its finest feature. Basic water misters are cheap and plentiful.
Then, once you have your mister, connect it to your hose and set it up over an area of your garden that could use more water.
You may also run the mister up a tree to wet a bigger garden area and reduce watering. After setting up your mister, turn on your hose in the morning and evening when hummingbirds are most busy and hunting for food.
If you worry about forgetting to turn the mister on or off, get a hose timer attachment and program it for various times of day.
