This artificial nest provides nesting opportunities for the house martin. The artificial nest features a drawer system, making the nest bowl easily removable for cleaning after the breeding season.
Recognized by:
- Place the artificial nest on the facade of the house or barn, directly under the gutter or overhang.
- Preferably install the artificial nest on the east or northeast side and in groups, as the house martin is a colony breeder.
- The artificial nest comes with mounting hardware.
- No nesting material needs to be added.
- Tip: Provide a mud puddle within 200 metres of the nesting site, so house martins can build additional nests on their own.
House martin nests can be cleaned and checked once a year. Do this at the end of the season, starting in October. To clean, turn the hook on the front of the artificial nest one full turn so the nest can be slid out of the drawer.
