Schwegler No. 11 house martin nest
This nest has been developed to enable House Martins to breed successfully on external façades without overhanging eaves and has proved highly successful. The unique, modern design certainly forms an attractive addition to our towns and villages.
Material: Durable, weather-resistant and air-permeable SCHWEGLER wood-concrete, painted in a light grey colour. All the metal parts have been rustproofed.
Siting: On an unobstructed external façade without overhanging roof, or alternatively, directly under overhanging eaves. House Martins always nest on the outside and never on the inside of buildings. Install on the sheltered side of the building. Screws and plugs supplied.
Height above ground: At least 2 m or above.
Cleaning: Both of the nest bowls can be completely removed from the base. The principle is the same as that for No. 9A. They are removed by undoing the screws holding the nest (see Fig. 1). This gives a clear view of the entire nest-bowl. Following cleaning the nest bowl is reinserted (see Fig. 2) and secured (see Fig. 3).
Overall dimensions: W 43 cm x H 17.5 cm x D 17.5 cm.
Weight: approx. 6.3 kg.
Includes: Basic element with two nesting bowls, screws, plugs.
