1. Absorption of light

Fiberglass mat is the right material adopted as it is light, durable, washable and easily penetrated by light. Birds residing indoors can feel light and warmth from the sun.

.

2. Ventilation

The use of a design involving only one hole hardly contributes to indoor ventilation. The solution is to drill a relatively small hole in the bottom portion right behind the house. This can substantially improve ventilation.

.

3. Indoor temperature

To tackle overly high temperature indoors due to prolonged sunshine in the open air, the curved surface design is adopted for the exterior of the house. The curved surface can effectively divert solar radiation and hence lower indoor temperature.

.

4. Drainage

Excretion and rainwater are normally released outside through the four small round holes at the bottom of the house while simultaneously the house is stabilized on the trunk with ropes through the same round holes.
