I use this dispenser for my lemonade I sell outdoors, and, the humidity makes it stick. Any suggestions?

Take a tea bag and empty out the tea and replace it with uncooked dry rice. Use a rubber band to reclose the bag and place it inbthe container after youadd the suger. This shound help as the rice will help to absorb nthe moisture.

Hi. I am sorry but I live in Southern California and don't have issues with humidity. The only thing I can offer is to try putting a soda cracker in the dispenser and see if that would help.

Mine is indoors. However it has developed a few small areas of mold inside, which can be removed with a dilute vinegar solution (5 tbsp to pint of water). I would think that this might be more of a problem in a high humidity environment. You might use a bucket(s) of dehumidifying crystals to reduce the humidity.

some times the wax can make the lid stick...i'd try running the container under very hot water, or setting it in a bowl of very hot water for a few minutes, then try again!

I usually just shake this to get debris off of it, and when it got "taken out" too many times, I just to trash it. I've never been under the impression that it's something you want to get really wet, but perhaps setting it out in the sun will speed the drying. Perhaps next time just spot clean the area.

Clean the glass and cups with some isopropyl (not rubbing) alcohol first. My feeder (now on its third year) came with a note showing which way the tabs on the cups should be pointing so that they're parallel; I don't know if they still do that. I'll find out after I order my second one. That's crucial to their sticking well. Dunk the cups in water, then apply. Mine's still holding after a month.

I did not notice any stickiness after it dried and we live in a rather humid climate!

You got yours to work? How'd you do that? Haha I can't get mine to soak up anything. I know it's humid too!

Try cooking oil or mineral oil. That usually makes that type of sticky material give up it's hold.

I live in a humid environment so I keep it sealed in the refrigerator. Seems to work.

I had the same issues. Sometimes it can be the humidity of the room. Did you use sugarveil molds? I used it to spread it flat and thin as paper on a fondant mat and it was a sticky mess after 72 hours. I saw the other product "sugar dress", I will give it a try instead.

I have never had this problem. Perhaps you are over watering? Maybe the liquid just evaporates quickly here in L.A. because it's a dry climate.

Try unscrewing it and make sure it's not clogged, I've not had this problem, so I hope this works for you. My daughter loves this stuff.

I clean the glass and the suction cups, dampen the suction cups and apply pressure too, and then wait a couple of hours before placing the feeder on the holder. That usually holds for a month or so, then one suction cup gives out and I have to clean and reapply. Rain and wind will cause the cups to lose suction too.

I didn't use it outdoor but I'm guessing if it's exposed to humid weather the glue probably won't last and it might start peeling very quickly.

u also have to make sure that water or bubbles don't end up in the air vent area in the back. if there is soap in it just wash it out and let it dry. Also make sure it is set to bubble lol . Good luck . And i find that normal outdoor bubbles work the best.

Our charge controller is mounted inside a storage locker so it stays dry. Once the panel had been in service for a few days, I taped some plastic over the electronics area on the underside of the panel to help keep water out. Months later I added a bead of clear caulk around the frame, for the same reason. Figured it couldn't hurt.
