How Significant Are Those Bird Shits Spots On The Floor ???

To those BH owners who are already successful and with lots of birds occupying their house, bird shits signs on the floor are not that significant.

However if you have just started a BH, the present of a single bird shit on your new BH is crucial.

There are many reasons why but the most important are:

1) They Like The House.

If within three short weeks, after operation, there were many spots on the floor, you know for sure that the young birds do entered the house and they are staying. A very good signs and you might have hit a jack pot.

You can safely says that the flight path, from the roof top to the nesting areas, of your bird house was is okay.

I would safely says that you have done a good job in lining those sounds properly from the outside to draw the birds to the back of the BH.

2) Where Those Spots Happened.

The locations where those spots are located in the house can also tell you something.

If the spots are below those external sound tweeters at the far corner of the BH you know that they like those sweet sound that you are using.

You can also see that beside the spot below the external sound tweeters there will be some below those internal sound tweeters.

What might have happened was that once the external sound were switched off, usually at 8.00pm these wild birds will move to those internal sound playing tweeters.

3) The number of Spots.

The number of birds entering and staying for the three weeks in operations tell you roughly how many birds were there in the house.

If there were 10 spots, you know that there might be a total of 20 birds (maximum) in the house.

Each spot normally refer to a pair of birds in the house. Those birds might change their locations to sleep at night but it is alright to assume that they are in the house and the maximum is 10 couples.

4) How to Count The Growth.

You might want to count the number of new birds coming to stay in the house.

The best method is to use those cardboard about 10" X 15". Place these card boards papers onto those spots that shows the signs and count their numbers.

During your next visit, if there are new spots, not on the cardboard, then these are probably new comers.

Their number will gives you the rule of the thumb that what you applied is working and you need to continue with the application of those aromas or play the same sound.

5) Differentiate the color of those old and fresh shits.

Fresh bird shits shows more of those white colored spots. Old shits are normally black colored. I believed the white spot turns color after a few good weeks.

What you want to look at are the fresh shits.

It is advisable to change those card boards after every trip.

6) Bird shit on the Walls.

If you observe carefully those birds do shit on the wall. The most common will be at the entrance areas and the roving.

It is not easy to throw those shits during flight but they do that for a reason.

My believed is that they wanted to mark their territory.

The more there are these shits on the wall the better it is. You know that they like the house and the number of spots indicated that their numbers are increasing.

7) What if the spots are not multiplying or going negative?

When the numbers are decreasing you know that the do not like the house for some reasons.

You need to quickly find the reasons and take the necessary actions. These could be due to humidity, temperature, darkness, the aroma or the sound.

Once identified make the necessary corrections and if you cannot determined the reason, I suggest that you call your "Sifu" to give a helping hand.

If you let the negative number continues in no time your BH will be empty.
