Hunter Valley Nestboxes - Our nest boxes are made to last
They have been designed assuming they will be exposed to the Australian Climate with minimal maintenance.
We achieve this durability by:
- Constructing boxes from 18mm thick plywood (instead of 12mm which is commonly used in the nest box industry).
- Using Marine Grade Plywood (British Standard 1088 (BS 1088)) which has very few imperfections and gaps and is constructed from timbers which have a natural resistance to fungal and insect attack.
- Installing high quality hinges, screws and other fittings.
- Ensuring our boxes fit together tightly with all external joints glued (no gaps or edges where water will collect or penetrate).
- Providing drainage points on the base of the nest box for when nature calls.
