Barn swallows build their nests inside stables, barns, warehouses,
archways and garages. If you see Swallows breeding inside buildings they
are very probably Barn Swallows. It is important to ensure that the
Birds have constant access during the breeding period (e.g. through a
window left ajar, ventilation pipe or open stable door). The Barn
Swallow is very faithful to a habitat and returns each year to the
nesting site from its winter roost and around 60 to 90 % of the Central
European birds also breed a second time each year.
Advantages of SCHWEGLER Nests:
- unlimited life
- breathable material ensures a balanced temperature
- easy to clean and inspect
- vibration does not dislodge them
- swallows can occupy the nests as soon as they return from their winter quarters in Africa
