Temperature

Most people know that temperature in the bird house must be between 27°C to 30°C. However, after they constructed the bird house they realised that the bird house temperature is higher than 30°C. They are unable to lower the temperature after they tried many methods.

When you design a bird house it is very important to determine the method to lower the temperature before constructing the bird house. After the bird house is completed it might be very difficult to lower the temperature. Even if you can it may be very costly.

Many consultants will advise you to construct the bird house first and then treat the temperature problem later. They said that you can always lower the temperature using water mists or humidifier.

If you think carefully, how much temperature can the water mist or the water from the humidifier lower the bird house temperature if the water tanks are installed inside the bird house? The temperature in the water is almost the same as the bird house temperature. If too much water is use it can also cause fungus to grow on the timber planks.

Other ways of lowering the temperature that I know some bird house owners did was to use water sprinkle on the roof or cover the building with netting to prevent direct sunlight.

All these methods use after the bird house is completed are not very useful. Therefore, it is advisable to design the bird house during renovation stage so that the temperature can be lowered to between 27°C to 30°C.
