Nesting box half cave larch wood

A half cavity is the name given to this form of nest box. Not quite closed like the classic nesting box with a small entrance opening (preferred by cavity breeders such as titmouse, nuthatch, sparrow and starling), but still less open than a nest built freely in the landscape or in a tree (which blackbirds or chaffinches, for example, like to occupy). A half cave, in other words, made of native larch wood and with its relatively large opening that lets plenty of light into the nesting space, completely tailored to the needs of niche nesting birds such as dippers, wagtails, robins or redstarts. The special feature: For cleaning, the front wall can be folded down completely and then securely closed again with a special fitting. This nesting box you get so only at Manufactum.

Some of the natural clutter that one should expect all the way around in the countryside is missing almost everywhere in our tidy landscapes. Large agricultural areas are hardly fringed by bushes and hedges anymore; plus, we immediately cut back faded flowers and remove prunings and leaves in our gardens. As a result, there are fewer natural habitats for beneficial insects and, incidentally, our native songbirds. Nesting aids and feeders are the means of choice both to revitalise the garden and positively impact the local ecosystem. By allowing beneficial insects to settle in the garden, you find pesticides are no longer necessary and get the opportunity for enlightening observations. They will turn your garden into a place of species conservation and nature discovery. Since each animal prefers a typical format, you can address certain species in a relatively targeted way just by choosing the respective nesting aid. We have chosen environmentally friendly, durable and attractive materials for our nesting aids and feeders.
