Wildlife Rehab Approved Gray Squirrel Nest Box – FSC Pine, Predator Guard, Easy Clean-Out Door

Give your squirrels a safe and durable home with our best selling nest box, designed for and trusted by wildlife rehabilitators across the country. Unlike some nest boxes on the market that focus on unnecessary features, or flimsy knock-offs, we focus on replicating the size of a squirrel’s actual drey or cavity dwelling space in a tree. We also use 1-2 predator guards in every house to keep your squirrels safe.

Features:

• Designed with input from licensed rehabbers, ensuring proper entrance size, ventilation, and drainage as well as species specific dimensions.
• Made from FSC pine and secured with weather-resistant hardware for year-round protection. We don’t use cedar as it contains perfumes and oils that can be harmful to squirrels. We also do not use exterior grade plywood as it contains formaldehyde.
• Each house features 1-2 predator guards, usually one exterior and one interior which keeps your squirrels safe.
• Pre-drilled holes make mounting to trees.
• Drainage and ventilation system
