BIRDHOUSE GUIDELINES and RESPONSIBILITIES March 7, 2001 - Tom Weber, Palouse Audubon Society Bird houses should be easily accessible so you can see how your birds are doing and, when the time comes, clean out the house. Face the entrance hole of your box east to northeast to avoid overheating and prevailing winds. Bluebird boxes are normally mounted on a post or fence post and should be between 5 and 6 feet from the ground. The area to the front of the box should be open and unobstructed. Because young birds leaving the nest fly towards a close tree or bush, having the entry face towards the same or another fence post is desirable. A rough surface both inside and out makes it easier for the adults to get into the box and, when it's time, for the nestlings to climb out. If your box is made of finished wood, add a couple of grooves below the hole both inside and outside of the box. Never put up a bird house with a perch below the entrance hole. Perches offer starlings, house sparrows, and other predators a convenient place to wait for lunch. Part of being a responsible bird house landlord is your willingness to watch out for your tenants. Monitor your bird houses every week during the nesting season and evict unwanted creatures. House Sparrows and Starlings (pest species introduced from Europe) will bully or kill cavity-nesting birds. Since house sparrows and starlings are not protected by law, their nests may be destroyed. A more humane solution is to plug the hole until they find a different place to establish their nest. Remember, however, that all other birds are protected by law. Although House Wrens interfere with the nesting success of other birds by puncturing their eggs, these birds are part of the natural system and are protected. Don't be tempted to intervene. Insects and parasites often exist in nest boxes. Do not use insecticides for control. Most insecticides are not safe around birds. If wasps are a problem, coat the inside top of the box with bar soap. Clean out your nest boxes after each brood has fledged. Many cavity nesting birds will not nest again in a box full of old nesting. Also, clean out your nest box each fall and again in the early spring. They will provide shelter for birds and other animals during winter. I have more information on my "ABOUT ME' page. Please click on ME next to my feedbacks. read more
