How to use

Choose a well-situated mounting point at a suitable height for target species, typically on a tree trunk or a post away from heavy human traffic and direct prevailing winds. Secure the nest box firmly using screws or straps appropriate for the mounting surface, ensuring the box is stable and level. Position the entrance hole facing away from prevailing winds and, if possible, with some afternoon shade to avoid excessive heat. Inspect the box annually outside of the breeding season to remove old nesting material, check for damage and ensure proper ventilation and drainage.

Usage recommendations

Clean the box once a year after the breeding season and repair any cracks or loose fittings before the next season. Avoid disturbing occupied boxes during nesting. Use predator guards or higher placement if predation by mammals or larger birds is a concern.
