House Martin Nest Box Cups Plywood - Double

Give house martins a helping hand with this expertly designed double nest box, perfect for attracting these much-loved summer visitors to your home or outbuildings. House martins are famous for their white rumps and mud-built nests under the eaves, often returning year after year to the same site. With suitable nesting places in decline, these artificial cups provide a safe and reliable alternative, helping support local populations.

Each nest cup is shaped to closely mimic natural mud nests and is mounted on a sturdy backboard made from responsibly sourced FSC®-certified plywood. The double design is ideal for encouraging colonies, as house martins typically nest in small groups.

Key features:

• Perfect for colonies: Double cup design encourages several pairs to nest together, just as they do in the wild.
• Durable and safe: Made from high-quality, FSC® plywood and robust nest cups, built to withstand British weather.
• Easy to install: Simply fix the backboard underneath the eaves of your house, garage or outbuilding, at least 2 metres above the ground.
• Wildlife-friendly: Provides vital nesting habitat for a declining species, helping you support UK biodiversity.

Installation advice:

For best results, site the nest cups on a sheltered wall beneath the eaves, away from direct sunlight and predators. House martins are more likely to use artificial nests where others have already nested or in locations where house martins are seen in spring and summer.
