Description

With its small 25mm entrance hole, this Natural Log Nest Box is specifically designed for Blue tits, with the hole size too small for the more dominant Great tit to use. It’s also possible that Coal tits will use this log nest.  

Our Blue tit log nesting box is made from FSC approved timber, with a hinged lid to allow for easy cleaning once the breeding season has finished. The lid is held in place by a screw, which once loosened will allow the lid to be lifted up.

    I have had a natural log tit box from Vinehouse Farm before and the service is great but i have to say was bit disappointed this time as the hole on the box is far too big and therefore not really for tits to nest in. I can compare it to the hole on the last box and it is a lot smaller. Other than that the box is great and very reasonable price but someone needs to re size some holes i think.

A nest box will generally be readily taken by either Blue tits or Great tits, and in particular if the box is positioned in a garden correctly and there’s a shortage of other suitable nesting sites nearby. However, if the entrance hole to the nest box is 28mm or wider, then it’s typically the more dominant Great tit which will secure the nest box. Therefore also providing a nest box with a smaller 25mm hole, will ensure there’s a suitable nest box for a Blue tit - the hole size being too small for a Great tit to squeeze through.
A natural log tit nesting box is also an attractive addition to a garden, with it easily blending into an environment which is very much aimed at attracting wildlife and therefore isn’t too neat and tidy.
As with any songbird nest box, it’s important that this natural Blue tit log nest is positioned on a tree, wall or tall fence that doesn’t get direct sunlight in the middle of the day - which would cause too much heat inside and potentially kill the young birds. Therefore an east or north-east facing aspect is ideal. A height from the ground for the Blue tit nest box of at least 2 metres should be the aim.
