Abstract:

Purple martins begin arriving in North Carolina in March, and they are a welcome insect controller. Not everyone has success in attracting these birds to backyard houses, which can range from gourds to several-storied birdhouses. Powell discusses seven steps to avoid in order to become a welcome \"landlord.\"
