This nesting box offers nesting space to the swift. Swifts see our buildings as replacement "rocks" where they would breed in a natural situation.

The swift looks for nesting places in cavity walls and under eaves and roofs. However, this nesting place is less and less available due to renovation and (after) insulation. Placing a swift nesting box is the ideal solution. Both recessed and surface mounted nesting boxes can be used without any problems in new construction, renovation or in existing buildings. The nesting box is made of the durable material Woodstone, a mixture of wood fiber and concrete.

House sparrows or starlings can also breed in swifts nesting boxes. This is often beneficial for the discovery of the nesting box by swifts. If the swifts want to use the hive as a nesting place, they will work without pardon the other user.

Tips for users:

The nest box can be cleaned once a year from October. For this purpose, the nest box must be removed from the facade so that it is accessible from the back. Cleaning is only necessary when a bird species other than the swift has nested in the nest box. We advise to also check the soundness of the nest box and suspension every year.

Product dimensions:
  • Outside dimensions (l x w x h): 44 x 25 x 22 cm
  • Inside dimensions (l x w x h): 34 x 13 x 14 cm
  • Weight: 7,2 kg
Application:
  • Hang the nesting boxes for the swift preferably directly under a roof overhang or gutter. Free on the facade is also possible. Multiple nesting boxes together is better because the swift is a colony brother. All wind directions are possible as long as the hive with the entrance opening does not point to the south/west and make sure the hive does not hang in the sun all day. No nesting material needs to be added. Hanging the hive is done by means of a so called 'z' hook. This hook is screwed against the facade. The hive can then be hung on the hook (through the square hole at the back of the hive).
  • After that, the cabinet still needs to be attached to the wall with the supplied plug and screw. With this new hanging system it is easier (and less heavy) to place the hive.
