Here is one of the tactics I use in my Bhs to enhance fast nests growth especially in new swiftlet farm. I will show you step by step to DiY this corner boar netting.It is very effective. Swiftlets would even build nests on corner boards that have tweeters. When you see the result you would agree that techniques, skill and knowledge are the pillar of success in Swiftlet farming.

Things that you need to DIY the Corner Board Netting. 1) Stapler gun, make sure you a good quality one. High quality stapler gun would penetrate hardwood. (no..no to China made).2) Plastic netting, any colors will do. You can get from Hardware shop. 3) Love Potion. 4) Corner Board. I prefer the crescent round type.
Spray Love Potion onto the Corner Board. Make sure turn spray nozzle to mist spray leave them to dry.
Cut Plastic netting to match the size of the Corner board. Make sure it covers the whole surface.
I prefer to use plastic netting because it withstands oxidation unlike steel or aluminium which could oxidise and produce toxic.

The stapler gun I am using is Made in Sweden. I have used it for many years for all my Bhs. It has never let me down. I remember once it felt from the 3rd Floor inter-hole and landed on the ground floor to my surprise other than scratches and the handle tilted a little it still works perfectly.
Stapler gun available please call for price.
