Premiere of the Organic Falcon Country House
At the Festival of Falconry in Reading (UK) on July 11th and 12th, the Wilms
Hygienic Wood team presented their new, state of the art falcon aviary.
The interest in this aviary and in the scientific research behind it was
enormous. Enthusiasts from around the world visited to find out more about
the Wilms concept for improving the health and living conditions of falcons.
The Hygienic Wood Aviary was presented to an international crowd. The nine-person
Wilms team spoke with falconers from around the world as they came to get a peek
at the newest concept in falcon health and housing. Not only the aviary itself was
of great interest, but also the Hygienic Wood chip mats that serve as an antibacterial,
antifungal surface and air filter. These mats also naturally regulate the
temperature inside the aviary. "The falconers who entered our aviary were astounded
by the pleasant atmosphere the wood created. Of special interest were the Hygienic
Wood chip mats which make up the walls, floor and ceiling. They were integrated
because of their health-promoting ingredients - which you really notice. And the
falcons of course notice it too!"
The Aviary
The Hygienic Wood Aviary is a new, improved way to ensure the health of falcons
naturally, based on the effects of pine heartwood. The construction and furnishings
of the aviary are made from pine heartwood logs and specially created pine
heartwood chip mats.
Through the active ingredients of pine heartwood, the risk of Aspergillosis and
Pododermatitis are significantly reduced – solving two major problems of falcons
in captivity. More about the research results
