Putting a nest box in your garden has a double ecological benefit: it offers shelter to birds whose habitat is shrinking, and they in turn will feed on potentially harmful insects in your garden—especially if you don’t use pesticides, because they are not selective and kill insects other than those targeted, meaning fewer prey for blue tits. It’s also fun, because it allows you to watch the birds in your garden. The diameter of the nest box entrance hole is suited to the blue tit, which is very small.
Bird supplies shouldn’t be missing from any garden. This timeless nest box will offer the blue tit a good place to nest, and will contribute to conserving its population or reintroducing it in a given area. This custom-made nest box offers not only the blue tit, but also the crested tit, marsh tit, willow tit and great tit, a good place to nest.
Hang the nest box in a quiet and somewhat sheltered spot—so not in direct sun or on the rain-facing side—with an unobstructed flight path for the bird. Autumn is the best time to clean the nest box.
The blue tit is insectivorous and feeds on many potentially harmful insects such as worms, fruit flies, processionary caterpillars... Its hunting ground: trees and shrubs, flower beds or climbing plants; they love moving from tree to tree while hunting insects sheltered from birds of prey.
The effects of installing a nest in your garden are multiple: it helps establish tits sustainably within its perimeter, thus increasing predation of pest insects—especially when the chicks are born, because the parents must feed their nestlings as regularly as possible, which pushes them to search as close to the nest as possible.
No modern garden can do without bird supplies. This timeless nest box will give the blue tit a good place to nest and will help conserve its population or facilitate its reintroduction in a given area. This custom-made nest box offers not only the blue tit, but also the crested tit, the marsh tit, the willow tit and the great tit, a good place to nest.
In winter, the nest box will be of great use to birds, which can shelter from the elements. The right place to hang a nest box is in a quiet and somewhat sheltered spot, not in direct sunlight or on the side of the prevailing rain, with an unobstructed flight path for the bird.
Autumn is the best time to clean a nest box. Entrance hole 27 mm in diameter. Suitable for the blue tit, crested tit, willow tit, marsh tit, great tit. To be opened from the bottom.
The nest box should be oriented south-east or sheltered from the wind at a height between 1.5 m and 2 m in a quiet corner of the garden or on the façade of a building. It must be properly secured so that it doesn’t sway in the wind or move when birds perch on it.
