An evaporation-limiting insert for a container is provided. The container includes: a hollow tubular body configured to extend into a container from an opening of the container and having an upper end portion; a retainer feature at the upper end portion of the tubular body and configured to engage a portion of the container to secure the insert within the container, wherein the tubular body includes a plurality of holes formed through a wall of the tubular body and distributed along at least a portion of the length of the body to permit fluid to flow through a space inside the tubular body, and wherein at least a portion of the holes are located below a midpoint of the tubular body. A method for mixing the fluid contents of a container while retarding evaporation of the fluid contents from the container is also provided. The method includes: providing an evaporation-limiting insert within the container, the evaporation-limiting insert comprising a hollow tubular body configured to extend into the container from an opening of the container, the tubular body including a plurality of holes formed through a wall of the tubular body and distributed along at least a portion of the length of the body; and agitating the fluid contents of the container to promote mixing of the fluid contents, whereby the holes formed through the wall of the tubular body of the insert permit fluid to flow through a space inside the tubular body. |
