Part 4 of a 4 part series
A landlord probably cannot have too many martin houses, as most places will support several hundred breeding pairs per square mile. And, while Purple Martins live on flying insects, there is no scientific data to show that mosquitoes form a significant portion of this diet.
A colony of Purple Martins consists merely of more than one breeding pair in a given house. They are not necessarily related to each other.
