No garden can do without a nesting box. This basic nesting box with pure materials will give the Short-toed treecreeper a good place to nest and will help conserve their population or help their reintroduction in a certain area. The Short-toed treecreeper owes its name to its behaviour since it crawls up tree trunks in jolted movements. This made to fit nesting box with zinc roof offers the Short-toed treecreeper a sideways entrance so that it can enter the nesting box directly via the tree trunk. Aside from the Short-toed treecreeper, the birdhouse will also provide a good place to nest for the Eurasian nuthatch. During the winter time this birdhouse will often provide birds with a place to hide from the bad weather.

The proper location to hang this birdhouse is a quiet and somewhat sheltered spot (aka not directly in the sun or on the rainside) with a free flight path for the bird. Autumn is the best time to clean the birdhouse.
