[@lindamcbridemiller5390]

Aloha & thank you! Monarchs showed up this year...been raising from eggs...but this is an additional food source for them...all! Gonna try this....laters ✌Linda

[@luciearl]

How long does it keep in fridge, indefinitely? Great idea. Please don't attract them if your neighbors spray lawn chemicals, pesitcides.

[@NotErine]

I love this!,Because since its spring i am trying to attract butterflies in my town!🌺❤️❤️thank you❤️🌸💐🦋🦋🦋And the butterflies love you

[@MrFerjurowns]

Oh yeah, I live in Kentucky and about three weeks ago I put a combination of banana and apple slices out in my handcrafted butterfly feeder gourd. Should be nice and rotten for them... i will probably put some oranges in there soon

[@Latinduck]

Will I be able to freeze it too? .... and Will I have problems with ant wanting some too?

[@thuffman44]

I got the same shirt !!! 🐝🐝🐝☮️☯️

[@beverlyhardy4398]

Can you use a substitute for the beer?

[@susanbell2418]

Can you use any other kind of yeast besides Brewers Yeast?

[@AlanWinterboy]

How long does the concoction last outside, especially in the summer heat? Till it's all dried up?

[@thenectarbar6461]

Alan Winter, it depends on hot it is. 100°+ will dry out in about 5-6 days. Unless they eat it all first.

[@lindamcbridemiller5390]

Made this, no butterflies...☹ although the State/County just poison sprayed ALL the milkweed apx. 1/4 mile up the road.. probably killed a whole lot! 🙄🤨🤐..so I will continue 2 plant milkweed here...I will do what I can. 👍✌not giving up! 🌈😇 Linda

[@surgeinc1]

Omg.. is that even legal?😢

[@lumberboy5329]

Butterfly gets drunk

[@melindatompkins8461]

How long will this mixture keep when stored in the fridge?

[@thenectarbar6461]

This will last about 2-3 months. You could also freeze it in batches too. Just make sure it is completely thawed before serving.

[@blackhorse2947]

My butterflies prefer Guinness Stout…….🦋 🍺

[@itmaslanka]

So what is that 4 cups enough for 80,000 butterfly meals ? You didn’t explain why the sugar ,yeast or beer is in there ?

[@cereluna2333]

You say 1 1/4 teaspoons of yeast but your recipe says 2 1/4 teaspoons. Which one is it? does it matter?

[@thenectarbar6461]

I said it wrong in the video. The recipe is correct with the 2 1/4.

[@learntocrochet1]

Wouldn't this attract ants?

[@test40323]

Ants, fruit flies and all manner of critters. I’ll be first inline on account of the dark beer!

[@dookieshoes1267]

I found that the butterflies would drowned if I made it just mush so I left the fruit whole.

[@asmith0412]

Make sure it's not too thick, and drizzle it down in some cracks in wood - don't let it puddle, because they'll get stuck.
