Reminiscent of New England beach huts, each house features real shingle roofs and lapboard sides and a silvered hole protector. Perfect for small bird species such as blue tits, coal tits, marsh tits etc and delightful addition to your garden. The nestbox is made from slow-seasoned FSC timber and maybe painted annually with matching water-based paints to maintain their appearance. The nestbox may be cleaned out of any old nesting material and disinfected with a suitable product such as Wildkleen outside of the breeding season (Sept to Feb). To open, swing the brass catch to the upright position and pivot the nestbox side, by opening at the bottom.
