Conservation Western Bluebird House with Extra-Large Roof - Add a lasting shelter for bluebirds west of the Rocky Mountains with the Conservation Western Bluebird House with Extra Large Roof. These birds, ranging from Canada to Mexico, tend to prefer larger homes than their eastern counterparts, and this sizable pine unit perfectly meets this need. Its generous, oversized roof keeps the interior chamber protected from rain and snow, as its slightly curved edges and extra lip direct precipitation away from the roost. A 1.5625" diameter opening surrounded by a wooden predator guard allows mountain and western bluebirds to enter the home while deterring mammals from reaching in and stealing eggs. Fledglings can readily reach the exit to leave the nest box when ready thanks to a ladder on the inside of the front panel, and gaps in each base corner ensure the cavity remains dry. Additional gaps below the large roof overhang offer ventilation, furthered by the 0.75" thick pine boards and their light coloration. Over time, these sustainably sourced panels will age to a striking gray hue, and an attached back hanger makes placement on a post, tree, or wall simple. Use a mounting bracket (not included) on the base for a different display option, and lift one latched side panel to perform nest checks and periodic maintenance. Place the Western Bluebird House with Extra Large Roof to your bird garden for a bold and classic domicile for select songbirds. Some assembly required. Made in the USA!

Prevent blowfly larvae from harming nestlings in your bird homes using the Conservation Blowfly Inhibitor Screen for Bird Houses. Blowflies often lay their eggs in nests inside bird homes, and the larvae feed on the nestlings to gain strength. This mesh screen forms a platform in the bottom of your nest box, elevating the nest off the floor. This aids in keeping the nest dry, as blowflies tend to prefer damp areas. The 0.25" mesh also is small enough so that adult blowflies cannot reach the nest through the bottom of the home, and it allows the larvae to fall through the grid so you may easily remove them from the nest. The sturdy metal construction will easily withstand the weight of a cavity-nesting bird family, and its size is perfect for use in many bluebird, woodpecker, or swallow houses. Keep blowflies away from nestlings using this Blowfly Inhibitor Screen for Bird Houses. Dimensions: 4"L x 3.75"W x 0.75"H
