Made from a Silver Birch log which looks wonderfully natural to nesting birds and is extremely well insulated from the elements. Birch log nest boxes are heavy duty and require a good firm location to be attached to, but they look fabulous in any garden environment once set up. 

Garden birds do seem to prefer the natural look of these log nest boxes; it's not usual for a breeding pair to be checking out these prime locations pretty quickly once they're discovered. 

They make a fantastic gift for anyone interested in attracting breeding birds into their garden. 

Please note; there are product variations due to the natural material utilised.

Nest Box Information

The location of a nest box is extremely important. Nest boxes should be sited facing between north and east, ensuring that it is away from any direct sunlight during the peak temperatures of the day and sheltered from any adverse weather conditions. Placing them on a tree trunk is the perfect location as the tree offers a lot of protection from the weather and produces shade for the nest box. A holed nest box should be set up above 1m from the ground and have a clear flight path to the hole. Whilst an open nest box is best placed 1.5m to 3m from the ground with plenty of foliage (ivy is perfect) surrounding it to help protect it from being discovered by predators such as large birds, squirrels or cats.

Cleaning nest boxes is also important and should preferably be carried out between 1st September and 31st January. Ensure you place your nest box somewhere where it can be retrieved at the end of the breeding season. When cleaning, simply remove any old nesting material then inspect your nest box to make sure it is still in fine working condition for the upcoming year. Lastly but most importantly, pour boiling water throughout the interior of the nest box to kill any infestation or lurking parasites, then leave to fully dry out before placing back up.

Better than expected!

These were bigger than I expected and very easy to hang. They are already being checked out by the blue tits even though I only put them up yesterday. The only mod I've made is to put a metal plate with matching size hole over the entrance to deter predatory birds pecking to increase the size to gain entrance.

Excellent

The birch log nest box was a lot bigger than I expected, which was a nice surprise! Very reasonable price, attractive and sturdy. Also super quick delivery!
