Re: Control of heat and cold for housing
We erected a T-8 wood PM house in fall 2013.
Could adding owl guards, hamper the first "nesting pair" from
accepting the house
Thoughts Anyone

Re: HOUSING
Dave, SORRY IF I DERAILED YOUR POST TOPIC-PREPING FOR PM. I'll try to correct that. Am still curious about misting, etc. So, if misting is directed on perch wires, than pre-fledge young receive none and are dependent on other means of cooling???

Re: Winter a good time to prepare for martins arrival.
Hello,
What percent of Iowa PM. Landlords are rural /w their site located near
water?
Is misting applied over the housing, for hi temp cooling?
Does wood housing also require misting, for hi temp. cooling?
If gourds equal independence, does it come at a hi price?

Re: Winter a good time to prepare for martins arrival.
Landlords in the NW MN. areas /w fixed housing, lowered, cleaned and did upgrades in the fall before freeze-up(too cold here, in winter, to work on this housing). One LL mentioned adding a new T-14 for the 2014 spring arrival. One wanabe /w a real nice site along the river, purchased gourds and is p...
