Cedar Bluebird Nesting Box

$ 31.46

Description This Cedar Bluebird Nesting Box is our top selling bird house, and for good reason. Designed with proper ventilation and drainage to provide a safe habitat, the front of the house also opens up for easy removal of old nesting materials (tools not necessary). All major joints are screwed together (rather than stapled or nailed). Fasteners are yellow zinc plated or galvanized, so no rusting occurs. Built to exact specifications for Eastern Bluebirds, it will also accommodate Tree Swallows, Chickadees and House Wrens. The inside of the box may be a little rough, it’s supposed to be. The birds will not mind this. The entry hole features a predator guard, a simple block of cedar placed over the hole so that Raccoons cannot reach in. **We recommend adding a copper hole protector as pictured in the photo (not included in basic price of 34.95), to prevent chewing or other deterioration of the entrance hole ~ your $4.50 insurance policy! We will install this for you before shipping, just ask. Your Cedar Bluebird Nesting Box should be placed on a metal pole or post 4 – 6 ft. off the ground. Placing any nesting box on a fence or a tree invites predation. *We carry the perfect and inexpensive 6′ metal pole that comes with a flange for mounting the box and is easy to tap into the ground. We also recommend cleaning out after each brood of birds. Simply open up the front of the box, hose out or use a brush with a very light bleach solution (1 tblsp to a quart of water), let it dry and you’re back in business. We have had 3 successive Eastern Bluebird broods in one season with this Cedar Bluebird Nesting Box. We sell dozens every year, with great feedback. Construction: Red Cedar The photo represents just one sample ~ remember yours might have a slightly different wood pattern ~  wood is like that. Front of box tilts open for easy cleaning, see gallery photos. Inside surface of front of the box is slightly grooved to allow young to fledge easily. See picture. Ventilated sides and bottom Dimensions: 6.75″ x 6.5″ x 14″ Entrance hole size: 1.5″ Entrance hole is about 7″ from the bottom of the nesting box. Weight: 3 lbs Attracts, depending on your location: Bluebirds, House Wrens, Chickadees and Tree Swallows. (we love them all) Add a Copper Bluebird House Portal for $4.50, we will install it for you before we ship! (Ask in Order Note) Strongly consider getting a Squirrel Baffle or Raccoon Baffle for your nesting boxes. (Be a good landlord) Hand made in New England   And, p.s. add a handy place to offer your Bluebirds mealworms nearby, with our Bluebird Single Cup Feeder, the amazing Droll Yankee X1 Bird Feeder, the Cobalt Sphere Glass Bluebird Feeder, or the Quick Connect Glass Mealworm Feeder for 1 inch Pole (not for larger diameter poles)
