如果您要燕子下去您燕屋農場的低楼您應該设法使用DIY的PVC火箭筒。 它是非常有效的，朝向45度在互连洞的地方往燕子飛行的方向。 您可以自己做而且还可以省錢。
您可以使用外聲来引導它們入低楼，但是确定声音最好不要太大聲。 否則它將使內声無效。 随后，您也可以使用內聲。
最好是有2个火箭筒在互连洞。 您可以看見它的差别在几个星期之內。 我在我的燕屋農場也使用它，並且效果是非常好的。 我许多的讀者也是使用它。
别忘了使用更加厚實的PVC管子，因为堅實的表面使聲音制造更好的反彈力。
要做一个花費还少过RM 20.00。

If you want the birds to go down to the lower floor of your farm you should try using the DIY Pvc Bazooka. It is very effective, point 45 dg angle place it at the Inter hole towards direction of the birds flying in. You can make it yourself and save money.
You could use with the external sound to guide them into the lower floor but make sure the volume is not too loud. Otherwise it would make the internal sound ineffective. Subsequently you could also use with the internal sound.
The best is to have 2 bazooka at the inter hole. You would see the different within few weeks. I have used it in my farms and it is very good. Many of my readers are using it.
Don’t forget get those thick PVC pipes because the sound rebound from a more solid surface would produce better sound.
Cost less than Rm 20.00 to make one.

没有消息就是好消息。 這是我昨天受到的短讯。
我的徒弟從Mentakab给我发的短讯，我已有一陣子沒收到他的消息除了頻繁送Love Potion给他。 他與他的朋友集中一起购买Love Potion，以便他們可以省邮费。
以前他曾经打电话给我，问我忠告，如果我还記得的话差不多2年前，當时他的燕屋農場只有少过200个窝，就在那时候他開始使用Love Potion。
去年我參觀了他的燕屋農場而却也寫了一篇关于他的文章。(如果我还記得)。 昨天我是非常高兴的讀到他的短讯。短讯如下：
亲爱的先生，
没有发問就是好消息。 有问很多問題就是不好的消息。為最近没有联络而抱歉。 S先生和我分享了他買的Love Potion。 在用了Love Potion19个月后，我的燕窝的計數将近1000个。
最佳的感覺不是您達到了什麼。 是您教了什麼，並且您所做的一切可以幫助其他人達到他們的目標。
我想我不會是很高兴，如果我在19個月后有1000个窝，但是看到其他人在19個月后得到1000个窝使用的我燕屋農場的方式和技術，而却使用我發明的產品，我的喜悅是双倍的。
大家有好的燕屋農場和最好的东西是应该与大家分享的!
No New is Good News. This is the sms I received yesterday.
One of my disciples from Mentakab sms me, I haven’t heard from him for quite a while except frequently sending Love potion to him. He groups his order together with few of his friends so that they could save on freight charges.
He used to call me and ask for advice if I could remember it was almost 2 years back when his farm has less than 200 nests and that was the time he started to use Love Potion.
I have visited his farm last year and had written about it (if I could remember). Yesterday I was very happy to have read his sms . The sms as follows:
Dear Sir,
No asking question means good news. Asking many questions means bad news. Sorry for not calling lately. Mr.S and I shared the Love Potion he bought. After 19 months of using Love Potion my nests count nearing 1000.
The best feeling is not what you have achieved. It is what you have taught and what you have done that helped others to achieve their goals.
I guess I won’t be so happy If I hit 1000 nests in 19 months but seeing others hitting 1000 nests in 19 months applying my way and techniques of farming and using the product that I invented double up my joy.

(這是我們如何計劃我們的内部 Amp。 您可否處理它？)
(一个详细的計劃被策划，有系統地那一条導線被拉到那里。 沒有猜测和專業地被完成)
(是不是很混乱？ 當然，如果您不知道您在做着什麼)
(所有的導線被標記的。 這是我們如何做它)
我的一個讀者告诉我他在網络上讀到某處發現了許多燕屋農場有問題辨認哪根的導線或高音揚聲器屬於哪些部分或那一层楼或者那个amps的。
這使进行修理接線或改變的高音揚聲器困難，当某些連接或導線不正常的运转时。
他设法勸告我这一点。 我告訴他您發現的东西對我来说不是新奇的。 实际上，我們根本沒有這個問題出现。 我早已實踐標記接線，自从我開始修建燕屋農場到现在，如果我还記的。 我們處理过超过40條線(电線)一次(40個部分)和那裡似乎沒有出任何問題。 混淆那一条導線去那个部分或那个高音揚聲器对我们来说是很久以前的歷史。
但是，很可傷的知道這仍然是一個存在問題对於許多燕屋農場。 許多甚而2層樓燕屋農場高音揚聲器的电線还可能創造混亂。
我不責備他擔心这一点，我經常看到有9個在10個燕屋農場實際上有這樣的問題。 它完全是從头開始的，整修燕屋農場的时候。
多數人不管只拉扯導線和附加高音揚聲器，沒有系統和没有考慮到对和错。
只想要尽快地完成工作，並且他們知道就算有問題出现它将是几年后的事，为什么要現在担忧呢。 當問題出现的時候，也无法和修理高音揚聲器或接線的人联络也找不到。
我总是相信开始的时候应该竭尽全力您就不會後悔。 如果您不是肯定的請法问沒什麼好羞愧的。

當我在北部修建一個燕屋農場时,偶然的碰見了C先生一位擁有燕屋農場離我修建的燕屋農場不远的燕屋主。
差不多2個星期时间的整修，我觀察到他經常每隔一天就到他的燕屋農場。 他走过来问我修建誰的燕屋農場。 從這裡我认识了他。 他是一個年長也很不错的傢伙並且想与我交朋友。9個月前他開始了他的燕屋農場，但是到今天还是沒有一個窝。
他不知道我有一個燕屋農場部落格，並且我通常不暴露它，除非他人认得我。 我保持低調。 我告訴他我修建的是A先生的燕屋農場。 我猜測他也认识A先生。 他想认识我或許他想要從我学会一些技巧来改進他的燕屋農場，因為我修造的燕屋農場離他的燕屋農場不遠。
從這裡他认识了我和他總是想请我吃午餐，每當他來參觀他的燕屋農場的时候。 我肯定他是想要從我學會而我也不介意教他如果我有時間的话。 由於我很繁忙的日程表，有时我拒绝了他的邀請。 有一次偶然的见面午餐下他如此的激动向我發表達他怎麼發現了一個方式来保留燕子停留在他的燕屋農場。 原因是沒有燕子停留在他的燕屋農場，因此他决定想出一个戰略。
「James先生，我在我的燕屋農場發現了一個方式，一個非常獨特的方式来使燕子永遠逗留」。
「哦，C先生，那是非常好的。那是什麼獨特的方式呢？」
「James先生，我更新了我的燕屋農場入口的設計，它像一个老鼠的陷井。 每當燕子飛行到燕屋農場里它們不可能飛出，因此他們便可以停留」。
「哦，是吗… C先生，那是很奇妙的。 那么所有的燕子将能停留在您的燕屋農場。 如果所有的燕子不可以飛出，那么所有的燕子不就会死了吗？」
「James先生，他們能飛出，但是非常艱苦才能飛出」。
「C先生，非常难才可以飛出出口，不就等于死了吗？」
C先生抓抓他的脑袋並且问我，如果我能提供食物給它們像使用虫粉呢。
我的回復是…也是死了!
這是事实的，不是开玩笑的。 這是C先生告诉我的事。 我遇見过從各种各样的人。 您會很惊奇他們所知道的一切，还有他們不知道的一切，並且他們做了什么在他們的燕屋農場。
我肯定您有聽过某些人關閉他們燕屋農場的入口在一些时间来确定燕子的逗留在他們的燕屋農場或者停留更長的时间在他们的燕屋農場。
他們不知道這样做將造成伤害的作用。 一些關閉入口從晚上7或8点到第二天早晨9點才开入口孔。 燕子被迫停留在燕屋農場。 它們很不願意地被迫停留这是反對他們的意志的。 他們经过10多個小時的精神創傷在燕屋農場。 這樣的精神創傷，您是否認為燕子會想要停留在嚇唬他們的燕屋農場呢？ 实际上，它們會記住，並且，一旦他們得到了機會離開他們将不會返回。 实际上，他們將把这个燕屋農場列入黑名單。
别太高兴，當您認為您可以控制自然。 我們是不可能控制自然的，我們唯一可以做到的是將跟随大自然。
我肯定許多人有實踐這樣的行動，但是您必须准备面對後果。
我參觀了許多燕屋農場，到过所有燕屋農場的市鎮和见过各種各樣的人。 您不可能想像我聽見过什麼，並且我見过什麼。 一些是很可笑的和也有一些是很難以相信的。
甚而一些还抛书包，给我一些燕屋農場的專科術語(他們明顯地不知道我就是從www.swiftletfarmer.blogspot.com的James)，當我進一步的了解他們就完全失去了方向。 甚而一些不会區分A.fuciphagus和Apus-apus之间，當它們在天空飛行时，但是他们已經承擔了巨大的項目。
曾经有些讀者打电话给我告诉我他修建了許多成功的燕屋農場(純粹是他說的)。 他想要知道我賣的高音揚聲器來自中國或印尼的。
我告訴他我不管它們是由那个地方做的只要它的頻率是对的就可以了，並且从這个小黑洞发出的聲音適合我的耳朵和燕子的耳朵我就會使用它們的。 我有我自己的要求和規格。
然后他问我使用什麼kbps。 我回復是,那是电脑使用的。 不是燕子的。 他完全迷失了並且还被混淆了。
我想，当您認為您知道越多的时候，實際上您什么都不知道。

(This is how we plan our Int Amp. Can you handle it?)
( A plan had been drawn, Systematically . No guessing game. Professionally done)
( Isn't it confusing? of course if you don't know what you are doing)
( all wires are tagged. This is how we do it)One of my readers told me that he reads somewhere in the Web and discovered that many farms have problem of identifying which speaker/tweeters wire belong to which sections or floor or amps.
This makes repairing wiring or changing tweeters difficult in the even some of the connections or wire do not work properly.
He tried to advise me on this. I told him what you have discovered is not new to me. In fact we do not have this problem at all. I have been practicing wiring tagging ever since I started to build farm if I could remember. We had handled more than 40 lines (wiring) at one time (40 sections) and there seem to be no problem. Confusing of which wires go to which sections or tweeters was history long time ago.
But sad to know that this is still one of the problems exist in many farms. For many even a 2 storey farm the tweeters wiring could creates confusion.
I don’t blame him for worrying, in fact I often seen such problem, 9 out of 10 farms have such problem. It all started from the beginning, the renovation of farm.
Most couldn’t bother they just pull the wire and attached it to the tweeters with no systematic and without considering the pros and cons.
Most just want to complete the job fast and they knew that even the problems arise it would be years later so why worry now. By the time the problems arise the one who fixed the tweeters/wiring could never be contacted or found.
I believe doing the best at the beginning you will never regret. If you are not sure please ask there is nothing to be ashamed of.

While building a farm in the North I happened to meet up with Mr. C who owned a Swiftlet farm few shops away from the building that I was renovating.
For almost 2 weeks of renovation I have observed he had visited his farm often on every other day. He walked over and asked whose farm I was building. From here I got to know him. He was a nice elderly fellow and wanted to make friend with me. He has started his farm 9 months ago till today there is no nest not a single one.
He didn’t know that I have a blog and I usually don’t expose it unless people recognize me. I keep low profile. I told him that I am building the farm for Mr.A . I guess he knows Mr.A too. He wants to know me perhaps he wants some tips from me to improve his farm since I am build one not far from his farm.
From here he got to know me and he always wanted to buy me lunch whenever he comes to visit his farm. I am sure he wants to learn things from me and I don’t mind to teach him provided I have got the time.. Sometimes I rejected his invitation because of my busy schedule. There was one meeting at lunch where he was so excited to express to me how he had discovered a way to keep Swiftlet in his farm. The reason being is that no swiftlets stayed in his farm so he decided to come out with a strategy.
“Mr.James, I found a way, a very unique way to make Swiftlet stay in my farm forever.”
“Oh Mr.C, that is very good. What unique way is that?”
“Mr. James, I have renovated my farm entrance with a design like a mouse trap. Whenever Swiftlets fly into the farm they can’t fly out so they will stay”.
“Oh I see… Mr.C, that is marvelous. So all swiftlets could stay in your farm. If all Swiftlet can’t fly out then all would die isn’t it?”
“Mr. James, they could fly out but very hard to fly out”.
“Mr. C, very hard to fly out mean No Way Out which equivalent to dead”
Mr.C scratches his head and asks me, can I supply food to them like using the insect powder.
My reply was …still dead!
This is real, no joke. This is what Mr.C told me. I have met people from all walks of life. You would be shocked what they know and what they don’t know and what they did to their farms.
I am sure you have heard farms that shut down theirs entrance holes during certain hours to make sure the Swiftlet stay longer or stay in their farms.
They didn’t know this would create bad effect. Some close the entrance-hole from 7 or 8 or 9 pm till the next morning. The Swiftlets were forced to stay in farms. They were forced to stay unwillingly against their will. They go thru 10 or more hour of trauma in the farms. With such trauma do you think the Swiftlet would still like these farms that frighten them? In fact they would remember and once they got a chance to leave they will never return. In fact they would blacklist such farms.
Don’t be too happy when you think you could control nature. We can’t control nature all we could do is to flow with nature.
I sure many have been practicing such act but be prepared to face the consequences.
I had visited many farms, travelled to all swiftlet towns and meeting all sorts of people. You couldn’t imagine what I heard and what I have seen. Some are so ridiculous and unbelievable.
Some even throw the Swiftlet jargons at me (obviously they didn’t know that I am the James from www.swiftletfarmer.blogspot.com) when I prompted them further they were totally lost. Some even can’t differentiate between A.fuciphagus and Apus-apus while they fly in the sky but already undertake huge projects.
There was once a reader called me claimed that he had built many successful farms (purely her said). He wants to know the tweeters I am selling are from China or Indonesia.
I told him I don’t care where they are made from as long the frequency and the sound that came out from the these black holes suit my ears and the birds’ ears I would use them. I have my own requirements and specifications.
Then he asks me what kbps I use. I replied that is for bites in computer. No Birds. He was lost and confused.
I guess the more you think you knew that is the time that you actually know nothing.

There are so many blogs, books, seminars and so on around why those who DIY their own farm or engaged consultants to do for them still make many mistakes and can’t even get the basic micro right.
There must be something wrong somewhere. Last week there were many consultants on leave you could see that on their web site, practically attending seminar for couple of days in neighboring country. I was wondering if they still have to attend seminars then how much do known about Swiftlet farming.
Perhaps there are still many things they need to learn. Therefore if they still in the learning process stage then would they build a good farm for you? That is questionable…you don’t need to have a high IQ to figure that out.
Yes indeed everybody is learning everyday but not after attending a seminar abroad and instantly giving consultancy. They must have the basic at least. They must also own several successful farms and able to understand the practical of Swiftlet farming. The best is having visited many failed farms this would give opportunity to understand the reasons why and how a failed farm is being built so they would be very careful when it comes to designing farms.
A successful farm cannot be copied. It is not like in production of products where every single product produced would be the same or at least compatible. We could learn what is in or what constitutes a successful farm but we cannot copy as it is in manufacturing production.
Every farms has it uniqueness understand its advantages and disadvantages and making use of what could help in making Swiftlets stay and make nests is most important
There is no magic in Swiftlet farming everything is factual and practical. Everything can be seen and can be felt. All one needs is to have reasonable intelligent to understand what causes the advantages and disadvantages. Understanding the Swiftlet behavior and getting the basic right would reduce your failing rate to as much as 80%.
Other than that it solely relies on the location and the surroundings of the area. The food chain, the vegetation, geographical (rock mountains, swaps, etc), industrializes activities (that affect the birds), and so on.
But most of the time seeing and knowing is easy doing it and making it is another thing. I bet most have known that the farm’s temperature should not exceed 31C at least but 8 out of 10 farms fail to follow this…why? If you ask them, 9 out of 10 knew this very well but why are they still doing it?
Isn’t there are lots of books, seminars, consultants and so on around. Some even have stacks of Swiftlet farming books you name it they have it from all authors of Malaysia and Indonesia. They could practically memorize every sentence in every book. Some even have attended seminar, the same seminar again and again. Yet when I was asked to visit their farms, I could see 9 out of the 10 basic micros are out of the acceptable level.
So whose fault is it? Whose problem is it?
Well if you cannot even figure out whose fault then Swiftlet farming is definitely not your cup of tea.
