Schwegler Woodcrete Bird Nest Boxes

Imagine the warmth and breathability of wood – in an everlasting material that’s easily moulded and shaped.

Developed by European experts Schwegler, WoodcretePLUS™ is a precisely controlled blend of over 70% real wood fibres plus clay and cement. The mixture’s compressed and cured at high temperatures, creating a virtually indestructible compound that lasts for decades.

Unlike cold concrete or clammy plastic, WoodcretePLUS™ breathes naturally to prevent condensation build-up – helping keep the box interior dry and airy all year round.

Make a difference with the right nest box for your garden 

It’s immensely rewarding to see birds using a nest box you’ve put up, knowing that the next generation is safe inside.

At Jacobi Jayne we’re proud to offer Europe’s widest choice of top quality nest boxes for species from wrens and robins to tawny owls and bats.

Even a small garden can support several boxes. Ideally they should face east or south-east to avoid the hot afternoon sun but this is not essential with our high-insulation WoodcretePLUS™.

Great tits and house sparrows favour nest boxes with a 32mm entrance hole. To attract blue tits choose a 26mm hole. Tree sparrows will adopt boxes hung in trees (32mm hole) and if you live in western Britain you may be able to attract redstarts or pied flycatchers.

Robins favour open-fronted boxes. They’re most likely to use them if the box is tucked away in ivy against a fence or wall with the entrance turned to one side. Swallows and house martins, on the other hand, prefer specialist boxes modelled on their own mud nests.

Not all species will use boxes, however. Thrushes and blackbirds make their own nests, as do collared doves and woodpigeons, goldcrests and long-tailed tits.

Make sure you give birds plenty of time to get used to new boxes before nesting begins. And don’t forget that many species use them for winter roosting, too. There’s no wrong time to put up a nest box!
