This nest box is specifically designed to encourage nesting and provide shelter for the common kestrel (Falco tinnunculus), a key species in biological pest control. Its installation is versatile, as it can be placed on poles, facades, or large trees, always at a recommended minimum height of 4 meters to ensure the birds' safety and comfort.
The structure includes a circular front opening protected by a small roof and a perch that facilitates access, while a hinged side allows for easy and efficient cleaning, ensuring a hygienic environment for reproduction. By attracting these natural predators of insects such as grasshoppers, locusts, crickets, and beetles, as well as small mammals like voles and field mice, this nest box helps maintain ecological balance and reduce the need for pesticides in the environment.
Ideal for conservation and environmental management projects, this model offers a practical and durable solution to support local biodiversity.
