This is (yet another) ant moat designed to create a barrier that prevents ants from reaching your hummingbird feeder. Simply fill it with water and hang it inline above the feeder.

Design Goals

  • Allow the moat to be filled with water before hanging it, without needing to tilt it and risk spilling.

  • Allow the hummingbird feeder to be attached after the moat is hanging, without tilting the feeder and potentially spilling nectar.

  • Eliminate the need for additional hooks or wire.

I couldn't find a downloadable design that met all of these requirements, so I created my own.

Printing Recommendations

Depending on your climate and where the feeder will be hung, I recommend printing this model in a UV and heat-resistant filament such as PETG or ASA.

For the cleanest appearance, I printed mine with the seam location set to Random, which eliminates the visible seam line on the curved exterior.

I printed it with 2 wall loops, and it has worked well for me. However, increasing this to 4 wall loops adds only about 3 grams of material while providing additional strength to the hanging rod, making it more resistant to accidental bending from side loads.
