Last summer we darned near got carried off by flies. It was like Ethiopia over here. Flies landing on my face, on my food, it was unbearable.
We need birds. Lots of them. Taking a lesson from Greg Judy, who has probably close to 1,000 birdhouses on his farm, the wife and I started building birdhouses in hopes that the swallows will save us.
We made a bunch of them today.
I built these from instructions I got from him.
Here they are.
Build some.
