Green Feathers Bird Box Steel Plate 3 Pack - 25mm, 28mm, 32mm

Want to make sure you attract a certain bird to your nest box? Besides taking measures like hanging the box in a north-facing position and at the right height, it’s also important to consider the size of the house’s entrance hole; it plays a huge part in a bird’s decision to make a home there or not. We can categorise different birds of a feather, each group with a specific preference for their own little hobbit door size:

  • Small birds such as blue, coal, and marsh tits: 25mm
  • Great tits and tree sparrows: 28mm
  • Larger birds inc house sparrows, nuthatches and woodpeckers: 32mm

If you have your heart set on housing and protecting a specific feathered family, order the matching entrance plate now, so the home is ready to go before the chicks arrive.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where should I put a bird box?

Place it outside in a quiet, sheltered spot 2–4 metres up, with a clear flight path and some nearby cover (like hedges or shrubs). For best results in the UK, face it north or east to reduce wind and overheating.

When do birds use bird boxes in the UK?

Most nesting activity happens during the breeding season from March to August, with a busy peak in spring. If you can, install your box in autumn or winter so birds can scout it out early.

When and how should I clean a bird box?

Clean boxes between September and February, once nesting has finished, to support hygiene and conservation. Remove old material, then rinse with boiling water (no chemicals) and let it dry fully before putting it back up.

Can I put bird boxes near each other?

Sometimes, but some birds prefer space, while others tolerate neighbours, so choosing the right nest box (and spacing) makes a real difference. As a simple rule, give boxes room apart unless you’re targeting social species, and avoid clustering them right by a busy window or doorway.
