Edible Birdnest farming can be considered an ideal, most exciting and a very lucrative business. This venture is suitable for those who live in parts of Cambodia, Southern Thailand, Burma, Malaysia, Vietnam, the Philippine and Indonesia. This blog is dedicated to my findings, crazy ideas, encounters with newbies, comments from friends, local news, pictures relevant to Birdnest plus my personal experiences and knowledge gained in swiftlet farming.

How To Use Your BH Ground Floor To Lure More Birds Into Your BH !!!
Assuming that you owned a BH with two or three floors.
However due to some design flaws or weird circumstances your lowest floor was totally empty or very little occupants.
What can you do to utilize the empty floor so that more birds will come and stay upstairs?
My answer is : Install an insect generating system.
What about an insect generator that can produce about 3-4 kilograms of insect per day?
So far two BHs have tried this idea and is showing results.
One of the owner was so amused with the number of birds that come to his BH even stop playing the external sound.
"Pak Harry I have started your insect generating system in one of my BH. After into operation about 3 weeks the number of insects generated were good and every morning nearly all those birds will come to my BH. They prefer to be without those external sound. Should I stop those sounds?"
The exact telephone conversation from a BH owner who took my advise on the insect generating barn.
He wanted to build a separate building at first but he could not find the time to wait to test the idea.
He took my short cut method and installed abut four racks inside his BH.
Within less than 3 weeks his BH rooftop areas changed considerably.
"Unbelievable Pak Harry. Your idea really works." his first reaction after counting the number of birds started to visit his BH in Pancing, Kuantan.
Now every morning between 7:00 am till 9:00 am you will see hundreds of them above his BH even with no external sound being played.
"Pak Harry those birds seems to know where there are lots of insects and they will come for it. Free food." he said.
The second BH owner have something different but finally push the insect generating system into his BH ground floor.
"Pak Harry I started your the insect generating system in a small building beside my BH. However they were so small and escape from the barn easily. My nearby neighbours started complaining that suddenly their house were full of these insect. So I moved the system into my BH. It is working very well now and lesser complains from my neighbours. You can see those birds always on the roof top." he was explaining about his accidental move from outside to the inside.
It was something unplanned for but with the insect generating system inside his BH most of the insects will fly out of the BH via the entrance window.
Lots of birds will visit his BH and his tenants, those young birds, need not fly far to find their food.
He planned to expand the insect producing capacity from one rack to maybe three or four.
This BH is in Ulu Langat, Selangor.
So far the two BHs using my idea is working well and I will be expanding this services to other BH within my care one by one.
Those of you who would like to try this new invention please call 017 7551318 or email to harryswiftlet@yahoo.com.
The cost to learn how to use this technique plus the mobile racking system and the preparation and mixing of those small insect food can be yours at only RM 2,500 ex Klang Valley for the first five customers.
The six customer onwards will have to pay slightly more.
You will be provided with three stacks of those mobile racking system, each consisted of 8 plastic boxes of 2'X3', a 30 kilogram of insect food (premixed and ready to use) and a kilogram of those starter insect maggots.
The other option is to allow me to install the system for a trial period of 6 months at a marginal price of RM 1,500 within Klang Valley or 1 hrs drive from Kuala Lumpur.
For those BH outside the Klang Valley the extra cost to mobilize to site shall be subjected to negotiation.
If you are satisfied you need to just continue with the system on your own and pay the balance of RM 1,000.
Call 017 7551318 now to be the first five.
