I have a link to one on my site. When you get there scroll to the bottom of the screen and click on the B's section. You will find it there.

Nice site. I guess. I can't read it with the blue lettering on the wood grain background.
Thought you might want to know.

Martins like small but high houses, and they LOVE mosquitos! I have seen lots of homemade Martin houses that are made from gourds, The opening is about 1 inch wide. Sometimes they are painted. Sometimes they are natural. Hang them on a line about 12 feet high in an active mosquito area and wait for the birds to move in.
