nesting box NISTHUS

A place of peace: Our nesting boxes bring the fascinating world of birds right to your home. Sit back, listen to the soothing birdsong, and feel the calming effect of nature. Replace the hustle and bustle of everyday life with this gentle melody – for more mindfulness and relaxation.

Doing good: By installing a nesting box, you make a valuable contribution to protecting native garden birds. The loss of natural habitats makes it increasingly difficult for many species to find suitable nesting sites – old trees with cavities are disappearing, and modern buildings offer fewer and fewer niches. A nesting box provides a safe haven where birds can raise their young undisturbed – from the egg to the first flight attempt!

Practical & well thought-out: Our nesting box can be assembled and disassembled in only seconds without tools – for easy handling and quick cleaning. On the inside, there are grooves in the shape of a ladder so that the young birds – when the big day arrives – can more easily climb up the rough surface towards the entrance hole and dare their first attempts at flight.

By the way: A perch below the entrance hole? Not necessary. Birds land just fine without it – but for predators like cats or squirrels, it would be an easy place to cling to. That’s why we deliberately left it out.

Perfect symbiosis: Combined with our nird feeder, you not only provide birds with a safe home but also with a reliable food source – especially important during the breeding season.

Size: 23,5 x 21 cm / 8 x 8 in, height 27 cm / 11 in

Our nesting boxes are made from high-quality, weather-resistant larch wood – ideal for year-round outdoor use. The surfaces are protected with a sustainable, wood-based oil from Rubio Monocoat, which allows the wood to breathe while protecting it from moisture.

To ensure a long service life, we recommend cleaning the nesting box once a year and regularly checking for any damage. This ensures it remains a safe and clean refuge for your feathered guests. A damp cloth is all you need – use little water and gentle pressure.

Depending on the amount of use, it may be necessary to refresh the wood protection after 1-2 years. All other surfaces should be re-oiled as required.

* UNTREATED: This version is intentionally untreated: roughly sanded, no surface protection, and therefore €30 cheaper than our treated variants. The larch weathers to a beautiful grey in the sun, though it does age faster. Simply hang it up and enjoy or add your own surface protection whenever you like: Especially kids will love it.
