Nesting Boxes
Swallow houses are situated in the immediate vicinity of objects where there is a medium to heavy swallow population.
The swallow house provides the birds with an attractive alternative and attracts them away from the object to be protected.
The swallow house should be situated in the immediate vicinity / visual range of the populated object. The distance of the swallow house to the object can be increased after an appropriate time when the birds have settled-in.
A swallow house comprises of:
A welded and galvanised metal frame, wooden planks and plywood, rendering base, bitumen shingles, house martin nests made of wood concrete, guide rails for the drawer system and fixing material.
Very suitable for the following birds: great-, blue, marsh, coal and crested tit; also common redstart, nuthatch, pied flycatcher, wryneck, tree- and house sparrow, possibly even bats.
The nesting boxes are not only used for breeding and raising young, but also as protected hibernation places in winter.

- Body red / front wall light grey

Special nesting boxes for the tree creeper and the short-toed tree creeper.
As both species like contact with a tree trunk, the tree creeper nests are half-shell shaped. Thus, the side to the tree trunk is open and the tree creeper can search for insects with its forceps beak.
The treecreeper nest with detachable front wall enables easy control and cleaning. It is hung on two aluminium nails.
The tree creeper nest without a detachable front wall can be completely folded away from the tree trunk. It is hung on an aluminium nail and also bound to the tree with wire. Thus, the upper and lower sealing lips press
against the rough bark and prevent
water ingressing.
