PRESS RELEASE

FEBRUARY 2014

 In order to preserve a bird-friendly garden environment, a nest box (or a bird house) is an absolute essential, especially in the run up to spring, where garden birds will be searching for the best nesting sites to raise their young. Since the likes of Blue Tits, Coal Tits, Sparrows, Starlings, Robins, and Kestrels are among the 60+ species known to seek nest boxes in preparation for the breeding season, it is clear that nest boxes act a perfect substitute for trees and natural spaces in terms of providing a suitable nesting site, as long as they face east or north.

With breeding season soon approaching, bird food and bird feeder specialists Garden Bird Supplies are offering their wide and versatile selection of garden nest boxes on their website.

Among the quality nest boxes featured on Garden Bird Supplies is thePremium Multi Hole Nest Box. Available for £7.99, this FSC friendly nest box has three switchable fronts, meaning that the nest box can be adapted to suit whichever birds are most prominent in your area.

One of the most durable, rot-proof and effective bird nests is the Schwegler 1-Hole Box. Having been the Official Box of the BTO's annual National Nest Box Week, this nest box has recognisable pedigree. The 1-hole box is made with great detail by industry experts Schwegler, who use Woodcrete PLUS material made with a tough mix of sawdust, clay and concrete to keep the nest box secure, sturdy and well-insulated. Garden Bird Supplies are retailing the Schwegler 1-Hole Box online for a price of £22.99.

Garden Bird Supplies also have more fun and creative nest boxes in stock, such as the Paint Your Own Bird House (£11.99), which comes with 3 different acrylic colour paints and two brushes, allowing customers to customise their very own bird houses however they see fit. Similarly, the Teapot Nester (£17.99) is a quirky alternative nest box, which can be easily fixed with garden wire by passing it through specially designed fixing holes around the base of the teapot's handle.

There are more straightforward nest box options on the site too, such as the open fronted box, and the basic 32mm hole box.

Nest box accessories are likewise included in the nestbox category, with accessories such as bird guardians and copper and aluminium protection plates, which help prevent predators attacking the nestbox. Other accessories include camera nest boxes, allowing you to capture your garden's wildlife at close quarters on film, as well as nesting wool to insert inside the nest box.
