Assembly:

On practically all tree species except cherry trees, as here the harvesting season coincides with the nesting season. The boxes should be placed on a horizontal branch of a fruit tree or in white willows, with the entrance hole facing the trunk. This discourages interference by passers-by and also makes it easier for the Birds to fly in and out.
TIP! Ornithologists recommend always hanging a minimum of three boxes immediately adjacent to one another since the Birds will use one or more to store food and young Birds will use them as shelter. Such measures will considerably improve the survival prospects for this species.

Bedding:

Coarse sawdust or wood shavings and a mixture of sand and sawdust are ideal as bedding. Each of the four Little Owl Boxes is supplied with detailed description and maintenance instructions, and the Aluminium Nails needed to attach it to a branch.

Cleaning and inspection:

Cleaning flap at the end of the box, opposite the entrance hole.

Delivery:

Supplied with clamping band and Aluminium Nails for fixing onto horizontal branches.
