This exceptionally stylish design will compliment any house and prove equally popular with the martins. Straightforward to erect (masonry screws are provided) and easy to clean (each nest slides out after release of a safety screw) the woodcrete construction of both nests and housing ensures it will look just as attractive after 20 years and 80 or more broods.
Droppings Board:
The optional droppings board prevents the nuisance caused by droppings accumulating around windows and doors. The board can be quickly and easily installed using 2 screw holes. Mount below the House Martin Terrace to catch the droppings.
This nest has been developed to enable House Martins to breed successfully on external façades without overhanging eaves and has proved highly successful. The unique, modern design certainly forms an attractive addition to our towns and villages.
Material: Durable, weather-resistant and air-permeable SCHWEGLER woodcrete, painted in a light grey colour. All the metal parts have been rustproofed.
Siting: On an unobstructed external façade without overhanging roof, or alternatively, directly under overhanging eaves. House Martins always nest on the outside and never on the inside of buildings. Install on the sheltered side of the building. Screws and plugs supplied.
Height above ground: At least 2 m or above.
Cleaning: Both of the nest bowls can be completely removed from the base. They are removed by undoing the screws holding the nest (see Fig. 1). This gives a clear view of the entire nest-bowl. Following cleaning the nest bowl is reinserted and secured.
Overall dimensions: 43W cm x 17.5H cm x 17.5D cm.
