Hanging your birdhouse from a branch or from your home is not recommended, as birds do not like when birdhouses sway in the wind. If there are poles or natural structures in the area, mount the birdhouse to one of them. Mounting it to an existing metal pole, or drilling it into the side of a barn or wood building are both great ways to set up a birdhouse. Mounting the birdhouse to an existing metal pole also protects the birdhouse from predators. Although this is not a necessity, birds are more attracted to birdhouses that receive natural sunlight in the mornings. Facing the birdhouse toward the east will also keep it from getting too hot in the afternoon, especially during the summer months or in hotter climates. Mounting the birdhouse at this level will make it easier for you to clean it out when necessary, and will also keep it away from most predators. Do not hang or mount your birdhouse lower than 5 feet (1.5m), but feel free to mount it as high as 12 feet (3.7m). The height range depends on the bird, so keep track of which birds are able to reach your birdhouse and make adjustments if need be. Keeping your birdhouse safe from weather will ensure that it lasts and that the birds are protected from rain or snow while they visit. Whether you hang the birdhouse or set it on a pole, keep it under some kind of existing overhang to prevent it from being damaged.

summary: Mount the birdhouse to a pole or to the side of a building. Face the birdhouse east. Keep the birdhouse at least 5 feet (1.5m) off the ground. Hang or set the birdhouse under an awning, roof overhang, or eaves.

This temperature will help keep your pet from being shocked or scalded by the water. If you don't have a thermometer, aim to use water that is around room temperature to keep your pet as comfortable as possible. This method is particularly useful for cats, rabbits, or any other animals that generally don't like being given baths. If you don't have a spray bottle, you can also simply mix warm water with some dish soap and use a flea comb dipped in this mixture to keep your pet's fleas. However, this won't be as effective as using a spray bottle to apply the mix. You can either wrap your pet in a towel to keep it from moving or gently hold it down by its neck. Be very gentle when holding your pet down; remember that this might be very stressful for them! Make sure your pet's fur is completely soaked through before moving on to the next step. Be sure to avoid getting water in your pet's eyes or ears, since this will irritate them. Use around 2 to 3 teaspoons (9.9 to 14.8mL) of dish soap to begin with and add more as needed. Start applying the soap at the neck and work your way down towards the tail. Make sure to rub the soap deep enough into the fur so that it reaches your pet's skin. Fleas typically live and lay their eggs close to an animal's skin, so it's important that you make sure the dish soap reaches all the way down to your pet's skin to kill all of the fleas. If your pet has really thick fur, you may need to apply a bit more dish soap to make sure you're reaching down to the skin. Start from the top of your pet's body and work your way down toward the tail. For best results, use a flea comb to brush your furry friend's hair as you rinse off the soap to make sure you're removing as many fleas as possible. Note that you may need to spray a lot of water on a single area in order to get all the soap off. Your pet may be especially tense after this process, especially if it's a cat. It may even run away from you after you release it. Be careful as you release your pet to avoid being scratched or otherwise injured. Don't take this behavior personally; your furry friend will be back to normal soon, especially when the food gets put out!

summary: Fill a spray bottle with lukewarm water around 70F (21C). Hold your pet down and use the spray bottle to get its fur wet. Rub the dish soap into your pet's fur until it's completely lathered. Wait 5 minutes, then use the spray bottle to wash the soap off your pet. Dry off your pet with a towel and carefully release it from your grasp.

If you don't have a large enough pot to leave your bulbs outside during the winter, you can stash them in an enclosed space. A shed or garage that will stay cold but provide protection from snow and extreme cold are perfect. You can leave larger, well-insulated pots outside. The cold air actually helps the bulbs bloom later in the spring. As long as your bulbs are well-insulated, the outside air temperature won't matter much. Every few days, stick your finger into the potting soil around the bulbs. If the soil feels dry down to 1in (2.5cm), water the soil until water runs out of the drainage holes. After about 6 to 8 weeks in a chilly environment, you should see some green growth from your bulbs. If you're keeping your pot inside a garage or shed, you can move it outside once you see this growth. Too much sunlight can cause the bulb growth to wilt. An area with light shade gets about 60% shade and 40% sunlight and is the perfect place for your potted bulbs. Once your bulbs bloom, they'll need more water than they did when they were growing. Stick your finger into the soil to a depth of 1in (2.5cm) and check if the soil is dry. If it is, water the soil until water runs out of the drainage holes. Squirrels are likely to try to dig into your pots and get at the bulbs. You can cover the top of the pot with mesh wiring to protect the bulbs from squirrels and other critters. Bugs shouldn't be a problem during the winter, but if you start to notice some buzzing around, you can use a general insect repellent.
summary: Keep bulbs planted in small containers in a cold, protected space. Check the moisture of the soil regularly. Move the pot outside after you see new growth. Make sure the bulbs get some light. Check the water level daily after the bulbs bloom. Protect your plants from pests and disease.
