Woodstone Starling Box 90616
Description
This 45mm hole nest box will be used by Starlings.
This product is comparable to the Schwegler Starling nest box 3S.
Siting
Hang the nest box with the supplied screw or nail. No nesting material needs to be added.
Hang the nest box at a height of at least 2 metres along the edge of the forest or in the forest itself (or if other suitable location available). Starlings like to breed close to each other, so it is recommended to hang up several nest boxes in the same area.
Optional:
The nest box can also be attached to a tree without a nail or screw by means of a Velcro. To do this, turn the suspension bracket 180 degrees at the rear.Maintenance
Clean the nesting box once a year when the youngsters have fledged. To open the nest box simply turn the two screw hooks at the front 180 degrees, the front of the nest box can then be removed. If a second brood follows, the nest box must be cleaned again in the late autumn. The reliability of the suspension must also be checked annually.
