Bird House Tips
Black-capped
chickadees, Prothonotary Warbler, House
Wrens, Deer Mice, and Flying Squirrels (entrance hole 1 1/8”)/Eastern BlueBird
(1 ½”)
1)
Position the birdhouse so it’s opening does not face
into direct sunlight or prevailing winds. Full or partial shade will help keep
the house cooler, and a more protected location will be safer.
2)
Clean the birdhouse seasonally or whenever a family
of birds vacates the premises. Remove all nesting debris and rinse the house
with a sanitizing solution of one part bleach and nine parts water. |

"The cultivation of trees is the cultivation of the good, the beautiful, and the ennobling in man, and for one, I wish to see it become universal."

Looking for a perfect gift? Want to attract song birds to your yard? Create sanctuary? Help the declining population of Bats?
Well,I aldo design, build and sell custom made Bird and Bat houses.
I use locally sourced/milled wood and use as many environmentally friendly products that I can in the process. Everything from recycled packaging material (for shipping orders) to Boiled Linseed Oil as a wood preservative.
See a bird house you liked somewhere else? ...Email me a picture of it and I may be able to reproduce it for you. |
