I had three feeding stations last year. The two in partial shade had more takers than the one in full sun. I think because the one in the sun dried up quicker. IMHO
As for the smell, it smells like stale beer. But the one above is just 6 foot from my front door. So try it somewhere other than your door first and see what you think. Keep them off of a shepard's hook if you don't want a trail of ants. They get confused when it hangs from a tree branch and don't find it as easy.
This one is just a piece of bark.
