About this product
The WoodStone Green Bird Nesting Box from CJ Wildlife offers robust protection for nesting birds in your garden. Constructed from a unique concrete and wood fibre mix, this nest box is designed to deter predators such as woodpeckers, cats, and squirrels, providing a secure haven for vulnerable young birds. The durable construction ensures long-term use, backed by a 10-year guarantee against rot or deterioration.
This nesting box has been specifically designed with the needs of several bird species in mind. A 32mm oval entrance hole is ideal for attracting Great Tits, Nuthatches, Tree Sparrows, and House Sparrows, allowing them to enter and exit naturally while maintaining a defensive posture. The internal environment is carefully maintained through an insulating material which helps to keep the chicks at a more stable temperature during the breeding season.
The WoodStone Green Bird Nesting Box measures 24 centimetres in depth, 28 centimetres in width, and 33 centimetres in height. Weighing approximately 6kg, it’s recommended that you hang this nest box using aluminium nails to prevent damage to trees and ensure a secure placement. Assembly is required for installation.
Consider the weight when planning your mounting; it's heavier than a standard timber nest box and requires careful attention to ensure stable and safe positioning in your garden. This product comes with a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty, ASIN B07M85TR3B.
