When placing a hummingbird feeder, the feeder is best suited 15 to 20 feet from windows 10 to 15 feet from the nearest cover, like shrubs or bushes and in an open area that receives partial sun, so that hummingbirds can move from nectar source to nectar source. Smearing petroleum jelly on the stem or cap of the feeder (away from the perch or flower part where the bird may come into contact with it) may prevent the ants from crawling to the feeder. Ants and other insects are also attracted to hummingbird nectar. See the article on hummingbirds for more details. Yeasts tend to grow in hummingbird feeders and spoil the solution, so they must be refreshed frequently and kept very clean to avoid harm to the birds.

Tube seed feeders are primarily made of clear plastic tubes with plastic or metal caps, bases and perches. These feeders also offer protection from larger and more aggressive birds. The simplest type of squirrel proof feeder is a tube-like feeder surrounded by a metal cage. Other seed feeders are designed to be mounted on poles as it is believed that squirrels reach seed feeders more easily from trees than from poles. Birds can still feed as they weigh less and the ports remain open under their weight. Some seed feeders come with weight sensitive technology which shuts off the access to the seed ports whenever a heavy weight is detected (as most squirrels are heavier than birds). Due to the need of keeping squirrels away from the bird food, manufacturers have created different defense mechanisms that may deter squirrels from getting close to the seed. Seed feeders are mainly squirrel proof, tube-like or hopper.
