A squirrel box is particularly suitable for attracting squirrels close to home, which means that you can see this beautiful animal for a large part of the year. Especially when food is hung in or on the box, the squirrel will gladly use it and therefore shows itself regularly. The box has 2 entrances and a step, which means that the box can also be used as a playhouse by squirrels. Raising young in the box is a rarity. Many of our customers opt for a squirrel box instead of a feeding table. The squirrel box can be hung all around with nets of seeds, etc., which means that various songbirds will also use it and will also hide in it when the weather is bad. With such a box, you bring animal life closer to home.
About the squirrel
About the squirrel
The squirrel is a true tree dweller that runs and jumps through the trees like an acrobat.
Squirrels are found in deciduous, coniferous or mixed forests, but also in gardens, parks and hedgerows near forests. Provided there is sufficient food available, they also come to built-up areas. Their food consists mainly of tree seeds such as acorns, nuts and conifer cones.

Hanging: By means of the back lath that we have already mounted as standard. We supply the correct nails.
Nesting material: n/a
Hanging location: On the trunk of a tree. Of course it can also be on a shed. Place the box so that it is clearly visible from the house so that the squirrels and birds can be admired. Squirrels are not shy, so a box a few meters away
from the window is often not a problem.
Other inhabitants: Both squirrels and birds will use the box for shelter.
Occasionally a songbird may occupy the box to breed.
