BH with two storey and above, for most of BH design, inter floor hole is made to be the common access between floors for birds to get into another floor nesting area, which is similar to the function of staircase for human. Improper creation of inter floor hole will likely result in imbalance of population growth in different floors or totally failure.
The most critical criteria for the inter floor hole design are the size and location, which also the common questions asked by many. For the new construct BH, I would normally go for my favorite optimum size 5ft x 10ft. I found this size is nice for birds to access smoothly, and minimum size should not smaller than 4ft x 8ft.
Where should we locate the inter floor hole? Some people prefer to create it inside roving room, and some people like to locate it at nesting area. For me the criteria on where the inter floor hole to be located, it must be underneath the flying path to ensure those visitors will find it easily and will not feel scary to enter. In fact roving room is the hub of the flying paths. Good design of inter floor hole is essential for the healthy growth of population.
两层或以上的燕屋,楼层之间的洞口是常见的燕屋设计一部分,给于燕子进入另一层筑窝区的通口,其作用类似人类使用的阶梯。不正确的楼层间洞设计会导致燕群增长在不同楼层不平均或完全失败。
楼层间洞设计中最重要的标准是其大小和位置,这也是常被问的问题。对于重新的建设燕屋,我通常根据我常用的最佳规模尺寸5英尺x 10英尺,我发现这个大小是燕子飞入较好的尺寸,而最小尺寸应不小于4英尺x 8英尺
此外该如何定位楼层间洞?有些人喜欢在把它开在漫游室内,也有的人喜欢把它开在筑窝区。而我自己对定位楼层间洞的标准是,它必须是在飞行路径的下面,以确保那些燕子访客很容易发觉它并且进入不会感到担忧。其实漫游室也是飞行路径的中心。好的楼层间洞设计对日后燕群成长是关键的。

Inter floor hole located after roving room is one of the options as on the flying path too
楼层间地板洞设在漫游室之后是选择之一,那也是在飞行路径上
