Don't let bad things happen to good birdhouses. Optimal nesting boxes should be placed on poles or posts with predator baffles to keep them safe, rather than trees. Many houses also come with reinforced 1.5" entrance holes, or you can add a copper or wood portal for extra security. Place houses in an open, grassy area away from trees and busy seed feeders for the best success. In Georgia, Eastern Bluebirds can have two to three broods if they get an early start.

In the house pictured on the tree above, squirrels have chewed the entrance hole, and now predators can easily enter and eat mom and young. Please protect those precious families, and give them a head start to life in the big world.

If you happen to attract other species to your birdhouse, like Carolina Wrens, Chickadees, Nuthatches or Titmice, please don't evict them. They need good, safe places to raise their young, also. Just put up another box, or two! More nesting birds is never a bad thing.

Don't make me blue, we need safe homes, too!
