Bird House S
How to Select the Right Bird House Online
There are so many Bird Houses available, how do you pick the right one to attract the birds you would like is a question people ask all the time. Most do not know where to begin and will turn to the internet to decide. Well I would like to offer some help on choosing a bird house online.
One important issue is the size of the hole of bird houses. If the hole is too large other animals and predators can bother or harm the very birds you are trying to protect. For smaller birds like Chickadees, the hole should be around 1 1/8 inch, for larger birds it can be about 1.5 inches wide.
I’m not going to be able to cover all birds here, but I will talk about Purple Martin Bird Houses and Blue Bird Houses to give you an idea of what to look for when you are buying bird houses.
Purple Martin Bird Houses have to be comfortable nesting houses which are built for several families of birds. Purple Martins like open spaces so keep trees and shrubs away from your Martin Bird Houses. Purple martin bird houses should be installed about 30 to 120 feet from human housing.
Blue Bird Houses only require room for one family of birds because blue birds prefer to be alone. To further help prevent predators, blue bird houses do not include a perch and should be flat front bird houses. Treated lumber should be avoided due to the toxic content that could be detrimental to the blue bird. Blue bird houses should not be located in wooded, brushy areas, feedlots or where there is heavy pesticide use. The best hole size for this type of bird house is 1.5 inches.
Whichever type of bird houses you seek, the internet features a variety of Decorative Bird Houses, Wooden Bird Houses and windchime bird houses to turn your backyard into your own personal bird watching haven.
