Description

A perfect home for Barn Owls!

Ships fully assembled!

Modeled after the design of owl expert Steve Simmons, this box meets the specific needs of the Barn Owl. The entrance hole is elliptical in shape to provide protection from predators including raccoons and Great Horned Owls. Additionally, there is an interior divider separating the box into two compartments. Should a predator be able to reach into the box, they will be unable to reach the owl or owlets on the other side of the divider. 

The entrance hole is also placed in consideration of young owlets in order to prevent them from being pushed out of the box. Special "grip" grooves on the front of the box underneath the entrance hole helps the adult owl gain access to the box. A door on the end of the box allows for easy access to the interior - making clean out a simple and quick task. This also provides easy access to mount a wildlife camera in the box, so you can enjoy viewing your own young owlets during their growth process. Ranchers, farmers, and vineyards have found these useful for their own natural pest control. This new, larger model sports larger overall dimensions to better accommodate larger broods.
Dimensions on box are 22" long, 12" wide, and 15" tall (roof overhangs box by 1 3/4" in front). The box has been treated with natural linseed oil on the exterior to help protect the wood.

Nesting Material: Although Barn Owls can and will find their own nesting material, a bag of pine shavings is included with your Barn Owl Nesting Box. Scattering some on the floor of the box when mounting will make the Box more appealing to the owl. If you need to replace the nesting material, pine shavings are the safest option.
 
**Cedar should not be used as the dust and fumes have been known to irritate young owls.**

This nesting box also comes with included stainless steel mounting screws for easy installation of our newly designed mounting system. Two mounting strips will also come attached to your barn owl box, along with a separate mounting strip loose in the box to attach to your preferred mounting location.
 
Natural Finish: The box has been treated with natural linseed oil on the exterior to help protect the wood.
 
**No paint or varnish should be applied to the interior. Use of these finishes on the interior of the Box could deter Barn Owls from nesting.**

The Barn Owl
 is a year-round resident throughout much of the United States. Barn Owls prefer open to semi-open habitats such as prairie, farmland, savannah, marshland, and desert, but prefer the vicinity of farms and towns. The owl generally eats voles, deer mice, house mice, field mice, gophers, and small birds, so the box should be placed where there will be a steady diet of these. One should also make sure that the box is mounted at least 1 mile or more away from areas treated with pesticides to keep the Barn Owls safe. The Barn Owl will breed in all months except January in North America.

The Barn Owl's house should be placed high in a tree or inside a barn or shed. These highly valued, rodent-eaters like open farmland, but may also live in a suburban area. Our Barn Owl House provides plenty of space for the female to raise her young and comes complete with wood shavings for nesting material. This very large house can be cleaned out through its large entrance hole. Due to size this nest box ships unassembled with easy to follow instructions, or it can be shipped fully assembled (select option at checkout). Eastern White Pine construction. Made in the USA!
