You need to replace them with the new plastic ones.  They are more moisture resistant.  They have been known to frost heave out of the ground too.

Good idea,now where did I put the map?

I made this birdhouse out of an empty 48oz Folgers Coffee Can.

Mike those are quite Unique, how do the birds get into them? They make a great deck decoration too.

Sure a lot of detail ,even scalloped shingles. Good Job.

The Red circle in the front view of the birdhouse is the opening for the birds to enter, it is the removable lid for cleaning it out.

HEY, KANT LET THIS GIT BY. I'V BUILT & put up 43 blue bird nest boxes n last few years. ONE COUPLE WANTED ONE TO SEND TO MILITARY SON IN Texas. LATER, TOLD ME HE WAS TRANSFERRED TO Maryland, he took nest box down & carried it with'm  LATER STILL, THEY told me he was assigned to DC, (u guessed it) that nest box was taken down & moved for THIRD TIME! !

 I'V WONDERED MANY TIMES, were there birds using it ANY OF THESE MOVES.

And YES I WONDER WHERE THAT BLUE BIRD BOX IS?

I suppose the box reminded'm of Bck home n S. Ga.

Not what I expected at all, very clever and I'll to make sure my wife doesn't see this!

That's some crazy migration habits those Blue Birds have.
