The health of hummingbirds depends on avoiding pesticides on plants that draw them. Pesticides can be ingested by hummingbirds directly through sprayed nectar or indirectly through the consumption of contaminated insects, which are an essential source of protein for them. These substances have the potential to be poisonous and cause disease or even death. Use organic gardening techniques when growing your hummingbird plants to ensure a secure environment.
