We have encroached on the habitat of many nesting birds and these birds have nowhere to build their nests. Our fully functioning decorative birdhouses can provide a nesting place for these birds while adding great style to your outdoors.

In choosing a decorative birdhouse it is important that the following factors are considered:
- ventilation
- NO perch by the entrance because it encourages predators
- slanted roofs so rain, and dirt do not collect on top, and a wall removable for cleaning.
- Most of our fancy birdhouses are meant to be mounted. Mount your birdhouse on pedestal, birdhouse pole, 4X4 wood post or side of tree. When using a pole a squirrel baffle is also needed so predators can not climb pole.
- Cavity-dwellers like the Chickadee, Plain Titmouse, House Wren, and Red Breasted Nuthatch need :
- houses with entrance holes around 1 inch in diameter and small natural wood nesting boxes.
- Chickadees and nuthatches also like an entry at the top with an opportunity to nest below.
- Mount the decorative birdhouse between 5 and 10 feet in height to attract these birds.
- Purple martin houses should:
- be white and have an entry hole of 2.5 inch in diameter.
- The houses should be 12 or 15 feet high and in an open field.
- Cardinals, Orioles, Goldfinches and Robins do not nest in man made wood birdhouses but you can attract these birds by providing nesting materials, water and feeders
