A Beautiful Idea On How To Choose Birdhouse Builder plus Guarantee of Having Birdnests !!!

The cost of building a two stories high birdhouse (20' X 70') is estimated to be in the region of 100K to 250K.

I am pretty sure that this is a lot of money and everybody who wanted to spend this amount will want to be assured of having bird nests in their birdhouse.

So how do U choose the right contractor who will build your birdhouse and will assure that there will be bird nests within 6 months?

I came out with these beautiful ideas:

1) Firstly U carry out a birdcall test on the piece of land that U wanted to build the birdhouse. Make sure that the number of swiftlet responding to the test is more then 100 birds.

2) Once U have a positive birdcall test, get two or more consultants to visit the same site and let him do the test using his own birdcall music. This test is just to let him see for himself how good is the birds population.

3) If his test is good, then I am sure he is willing to build one with a slim risk of failure.

4) Ask him to submit a quotation and his payment terms.

5) Upon receiving his quotation, U have the right to modify the terms to make it more to be in favors of U.

6) Call him and tell him that you want the payment terms to be modified such that U will only pay 80% while the balance shall be paid based upon Birdnest population in the new house.

Example:

If his quotation total is 200K, U will pay him the first payment of 10% upon award, 20% upon building material at site, 10% upon structures are up .

Once the building is completed U pay him another 20%. You pay him 20% more when the music are run and the birds are seen to come into the house.

Balance of 20% shall be paid based on the number of nests being build in the house within a period of 6 months. For every nest build he is entitled for a payment of RM1,000.

Every month U and him will make a birdnest population check. U enter the room with him and check on the number of new nests being build. A new nest is defined as at least a half cup size. If the first month there are 5 nests, U pay him RM5,000 (5 X RM1,000). Mark these nests with color marker for your easier differentiation during the next month scheduled check.

The next month U again together with him will visit the rooms and check on the new number of nests being built. If there are another 5 new nests, U release another RM5,000.

U continue doing this until the 6th months.

If within the agreed 6 months the total number of nest built is 40 , he gets what he is entitled, which is equivalent to the 20% balance. If the number of nests are less then 40 then he loose the balance. Fair and square.

Note: A new nest must be half a cup size and nothing less.

If you adopt this suggestions, I am pretty sure U will have 40 nests within the first 6 months upon compleation.

Any comments ??????
