What kind of living environment do pigeons want? It seems to be no different from our human's, cool, dry and ventilated. In the case of unfavorable natural conditions, creating a comfortable living environment for pigeons with available materials is what we should do, and it is also the first material guarantee of this sport.

Basic requirements of a pigeon loft (in the south): protection against rain, ventilation, heat insulation, dryness, protection against strong light radiation, protection against insects, protection against small animals (protection against human beings is not included in the discussion).

Construction materials: Based on the requirement of moisture-proof, red bricks and shirataki are the ideal materials of choice for construction.

Structural type: Brick, Rigid wood, Wooden structure, all three of the above types should be elevated.

The roof should be a triangle as the first choice, no matter what kind of surface material, the interior should be added 20 thick polystyrene board insulation layer as well as the shirt wood lookout board, the eaves can be made longer.

Walls to shirt wood panels as the first choice, should be opened around the ventilation style grille or shutters, the key is to open the upper and lower, in the high temperature and less windy pieces of heat rising, if the four walls of the upper part of the ventilation style grille is not opened, the heat will be hindered from dispersing.

Inside the part of the shed partition wall with shirt wood grille, easy ventilation. All open parts should be set up double screen mesh, the outside of the fine screen mesh mosquito, the inside of the 20 * 20 galvanized wire mesh to prevent all kinds of animals, pigeons nesting entrance should also be added to the activities of anti-mosquito netting, closed at night.

The ground is grated with wooden strips. The periphery of the elevated floor is equipped with double-layer screen mesh, and the interior is set up with wooden slanting boards. The inner wall surface adopts the fire surface treatment, after finishing with "struggle sodium" (kill mosquitoes and flies poison, harmless to pigeons), fully coated once, and then coated once a month. The outer wall surface is made of light-colored water-based anti-radiation wall coating, which can effectively reduce the impact of radiant heat on the wall surface and effectively reduce the temperature of the wall panel.

Building a pigeon loft in the above way does not increase the cost too much, it just utilizes some natural principles and handles some details, and I believe it will achieve unexpected results.
