Cedar bird houses attract birds

Some of the best friends to organic gardeners are birds. Not only do they grace your yard with color, song and energy, they are hard working natural pest control providers.

Attracting birds to set up house in your garden requires just a few simple basics:

• water supply
• food supply
• nesting materials
• safe nesting spot

At the Green Earth Market, you'll find cedar bird houses perfect for providing safe nesting spots to the birds you hope to attract. Crafted from clear western red cedar, a naturally long-lasting weather resistant wood, these houses come in several different styles and sizes which will attract a variety of birds.

Adding electric mosquito traps in your garden is another way to implement environmentally friendly pest control measures on your property. These devices are an extraordinary innovation.

Concerns about the West Nile virus, which is most commonly spread by mosquitoes, has put many organic gardeners in a quandary. The virus' potential for inflicting serious harm, especially to children and seniors, demands remediation measures. But what measures are safe for the human and physical environment?

Green Earth Market is very enthusiastic about the proven effectiveness of electric mosquito traps which attract and trap mosquitoes without the use of harmful pesticides. We offer several models to choose from, some which can be used safely both indoors and outdoors.

The line of electric traps we offer is different from other products on the market because they do not rely on burning propane to create carbon dioxide as bait. Instead, these traps use an effective UV bulb to attract mosquitoes, black flies, biting midges and other pests into a trap they can't escape.

Combined with attracting nesting birds by strategically placing cedar bird houses around your garden, our mosquito traps will help you implement pest control measures you can feel ecologically good about.

We also carry outdoor patio sets and porch swings for your outdoor pleaseure.
