How to use

Select a quiet, sheltered location at a height appropriate for the target species and mount the nest box securely to a tree trunk or fixed support using screws or straps. Position the entrance facing away from prevailing winds and direct strong midday sun to avoid overheating. Check and clean the nest box outside the breeding season to remove old nesting material and parasites; avoid disturbance during active nesting. Ensure ventilation around the mounting area and re‑fasten the box if it becomes loose.

Usage recommendations

Mount at a recommended height of 2–4 metres for tits and similar small birds, avoid placing the box near dense predator access points, and perform annual inspections in late autumn or early spring. Do not paint the interior; if external treatment is needed, use breathable, bird‑safe coatings and allow drying before installation.
