Why it matters

Small habitats. Big impact.

Natural nesting spots are disappearing. A well-placed box helps the animals that keep your land healthy.

Owls

Natural rodent control. A secure box gives saw-whets and other small owls a safe place to raise their young.

Bats

Bats help keep mosquitoes and other insects in check. One cedar box can shelter a small colony of 20+ bats.

Bees

Solitary bees pollinate flowers, fruits and vegetables. Bamboo nesting tubes give them a place to lay eggs and thrive.

Questions & answers

Is shipping really included?

Yes. The price you see is the price you pay — shipping is included on every box.

Where should I put my owl box?

Mount it on a tree or post in a quiet, wooded or rural area. Woodland edges, backyards and properties near open fields all work well.

Where should I hang a bat box?

Choose a spot that gets plenty of sun, mounted high on a pole or building wall. Bats prefer warm roosts with a clear flight path.

Where's the best spot for the bee house?

Hang it in a sunny spot in your garden, ideally near flowers. Use the included hanger to mount it on a tree, fence or wall.

Do the boxes need maintenance?

Very little. The owl box has a swing door for easy cleaning, and all boxes are built to withstand the weather season after season.
