How can I keep wasps out of my birdhouses and not harm the birds with chemicals?

Posted on Aug 24, 2008 under Decorative Birdhouses| 3 Comments


Actually, the birds themselves should keep the wasps out. They find wasps to be quite tasty.
What you have to do is relocate the bird habitat to a location that birds like. Wasps indicate that the habitat is in an undesirable location.
Good luck.
