I’ve received an Interesting email this morning from a reader from Cambodia. It’s good to hear that Love Potion had helped his Bh. Love Potion had helped not only Swiftlet farms in Malaysia but all Bhs in South East Asia.
Dear James,
I am very happy to say thank you for your New Love Potion. My BH put into operation almost one and half year but I have less than 100 birds. But after only two month using your powerful Love Portion the bird population increase fast say around more than 300. I have known your Love Potion from one of my friend which he bought Love Potion from Klang.
One more thing I want your idea about wooden plank. Between good quality natural wooden nesting plank not treated and wooden plank treated (dried from factory), which one is the option and why?
Mr. Long
From Cambodia
On The Question on Nesting Planks:
Of cos if given a choice choose planks that are factory dried with K.D facilities. This would assure no mould and fungus in the future even if the humidity is constantly high at all times. Not 100% dried wood would have wood smell. So make sure the planks you use are 100% dried.
But I doubted many factories would have such facilities. Direct dry under the Sun is not good enough. Secondly the types of wood itself also play a part. Some woods are prone to fungus due to its large pores that absorb moist.
In definition, High quality hard woods have small pores and Poor quality ones have large pores.
High quality woods are heavy and often dark in color while poor quality ones are very lighter and have lighter color tone.
For your information most Bhs (80-90%) are using poor quality woods which would see fungus or mould problem within 1-2 years. If Rh is constantly high at 90% mould & fungus would appear within 6 months.
It is not that most Bh’s owners want to use the poor quality wood. It is because they didn’t know or understand about the importance of good wood in Swiftlet farm.
Regards
James
Good Swiftlet farming All!
