Building a Bird Houses for Sale:

Building birdhouses for your backyard can add a distinctive flavor to your garden, and they are an easy way to have more birds around your home or in your woodlot. By tailoring the Bird Houses for Sale you build to the needs of species you want to attract will increase your chances of success. Here are some general guidelines:

  • Provide a hinged side or roof so you can easily clean the house. Use rust-proof hinges to make this task easier.
  • Provide a roof with at least a two-inch overhang on the front to protect the entrance hole from wind-driven rain, and to prevent cats from reaching in from above.
  • The sides of the house should enclose the floor to keep rain from seeping into the house and nest.
  • Don't put perches on any Bird Houses for Sale, the only birds that prefer them are starlings and house sparrows.
  • Space next boxes at least 25 feet apart (300 feet for blueBird Houses for Sales) to reduce conflicts. Most birds are territorial and protect the area around their nest.
  • Wood is a great material to use. Avoid pressure-treated lumber because when it gets wet it can give off vapors that are poisonous to birds. Preservatives, such as paint or stain, can be used on the outside of the box.
  • Do not use tin cans, milk cartons or metal for nest boxes. They can overheat and kill the eggs and young birds.
  • Most houses should be attached to a post, building or tree.
