Little Owls, with their distinctively marked plumage and endearing characteristics, are a joy to see. Our Little Owl Nesting Box is specifically crafted to replicate the nesting conditions preferred by these fascinating birds, allowing them to roost and breed successfully.
Constructed with high-quality and sustainably sourced 18mm ply, this nesting box ensures longevity and protection against the elements. Its precise design and attention to detail create an optimal environment for Little Owls to establish their nest and raise their young.
The spacious interior chamber provides ample room for the owls to roost and nest, while the strategically placed entrance hole allows easy access for the adult owls.
All of our boxes are made by hand to order. We aim to ship all boxes in 5 to 7 days of order placement.
However, at busy times this can be up to 3 weeks due to the nature of hand finishing each product.
The exceptions to this are Apex boxes and Bespoke boxes which can take up to 4 weeks to make.
We currently only ship to addresses within the UK.
Our boxes are made from 18mm ply. Our ply is sourced from responsible plantations within Europe that plant 3 trees for each 1 that is harvested.
The ply has excellent water resistance, the surface is breathable and water vapour can move freely. This is one of the reasons why our ply will not delaminate, unlike others available. You do not need to treat the ply prior to mounting the box.
The paint used on roofs of boxes (if applicable) is a water based, heat reflective, roofing paint.
All screws used are stainless steel. We design the boxes to minimise our reliance on screws.
Detailed instructions will come with your box.
There is no need to treat or paint the boxes prior to putting them up. If you want to paint the box, we suggest using a water-based, non-toxic paint. Please do not paint over the dark circles on swift boxes - these are visual clues to swifts that there is a nesting cavity.
We suggest inspecting the box once a year when you are very confident there are no nesting birds using it.
