Schwegler 26 Brick Box Nest
The Schwegler Brick Box Type 26 is a large open-fronted nest box. The box dimensions are designed to be incorporated into standard, commercially available bricks used in modern European construction.
The dimensions have been designed to allow for the standard 1cm layer of mortar without the need to cut adjoining bricks. It can be installed flush with the wall and can be rendered so that only the entrance hole is visible.
Occupants: Birds that use open-fronted nest boxes, such as Redstarts, Pied Wagtails, Spotted Flycatchers, and sometimes Robins.
Why are nest boxes important?
Natural nest sites are being lost having devastating consequences for bird species. Birds are an essential component of functioning ecosystems and have a direct impact on human populations and millions of other species. It is therefore important to provide our feathered friends with a home.
The interior of these Brick Boxes is similar to that of a natural woodpecker hole, with the same shallow, oval depression in the floor.

SPECIES: Birds that use open-fronted nest boxes, such as Redstarts, Pied Wagtails, Spotted Flycatchers, and sometimes Robins.
SITING: The dimensions correspond to those of standard, commercially available bricks used in modern European house construction (the only exception is the Type 27.) These dimensions allow for a 1 cm layer of mortar, enabling the nesting blocks to be inserted in any wall without the need to cut adjoining bricks. The Brick Boxes can be installed flush with the outside wall and can be rendered or covered so that only the entrance hole is visible.
