In Swiftlet farming consistency in term of maintenance are very important. That means whatever you do it must be a continuous works at a planned period.
This included Aroma application, sound & tweeters replacement, etc and the list goes on.
Many adapted the way of one time service which I named it because after their farms started they will never do anything to it till few years later. If lucky, their farms may have nests otherwise they will start condemning the one who build their farms.
Most owners put all responsibilities to the one who built the farms. The mentality is that I've got money I pay you, you answer to whatever regarding the farms.
Just like sending a child to school if the child can't get good results the teacher is to be blamed.
Most successful farm's owners will never adapt or have such mentality. Most of them are brilliant, sharp and practice maintenance consistency.
One of the good example is an Owner from Setiawan who is a regular reader of my blog who has 10 farms.
He is a regular user of Love Potion and has been using it since Love Potion was launch last year.
His farms showed impressive results from 500 nests to 1200 in 7 months. The best part claimed by him is that he only apply it in certain sections of his farm and wanted the see the differences.
All the high number nests increases were in the rooms and floors that he had applied Love Potion.
That's not all. Out of the 10 farms he only selected half of them to have the Love Potion tried out. The results all showed positive compared to those that he didn't apply Love Potion.
His tricks was to apply them regularly according a planned period without fail. He said " most would just apply once then expect miracles. As birds will take a while to condition to the environment and later nests building will follow.
Previously few of his farms nests growth were stagnant. He dare not invest further on new farm.
Recently he called me up and said he is building few new farms. I asked him I thought that you won't be investing in new farms anymore? His reply was" Now I dare because of Love potion and I know how it works and I know how to make use of it".
So consistency is most important. This is not just a presumption it is fact. Common sense will tell you. A consistent stability of RH, Temp, Aroma, etc will help to increase nests in farm.
Good Luck!
