Heath 18 Room Aluminum Purple Martin House (Model AH-18D) Review

I ordered a 4 story house. I put it together alone and had no problems understanding the instructions... Took a long time but I had fun with it! I did put on gloves, no biggie, the edges are sharp.
I bought it because it's inexpensive. You get what you pay for the better units are $400.00+. Would I buy it again, yes because that's what I can afford and all the inconveniences have to be dealt with. If you can afford a better one get one, but this is much better than none, I love the Martins.
The problems with this house are many.
1) You can clean it only by lifting the layers off and reaching inside thru the tops. You should not do this while the Martins are around. So I end up bringing it to the ground and using a shop vac in each hole that contains an unwanted nest. If there's a better way, I can't find it and have spent lots of time working with it.
2) The depth of the nests make it easy for predators to stick their heads in and pull out babies. I'm looking into using some welded wire for predator guards but the house looks beautiful as it is and I don't want to ruin the look. I'm rural and can shoot into the ground to scare off hawks, if I was in town and couldn't shoot, I'd have to get predator guards on right now.
3) The telescoping pole SUCKS big time, we made an offset winch system that was expensive and time consuming. Don't try it if you don't have welding equipment.
4)Maybe I'm dim but I can't find accessories for this unit. I'd like a hex perch for the top, predator guards and starling proof door kits. Can't find them anywhere. Also, my sparrow traps do not fit.
