Help adorable, acrobatic squirrels find appropriate nesting sites with this Squirrel House by Prime Retreat. Offering shelter to these creatures provides protection from the elements and predators, allowing them to safely care for their young. A 2.5" long and 2.75" tall notch on one side of this tall nest box enables squirrels to easily enter it, and an internal ledge beneath this opening provides them a comfortable perching spot. The overhanging roof keeps rain and snow out of the domicile, and the front panel lifts for seasonal cleaning. Predrilled holes on the top lip make it easy to place this shelter against a wall, tree, or post, and a stylized squirrel figure resting on the front panel lends a fun motif to the home. A generous thumbscrew at the base of this section keeps the nesting box securely closed, while its 0.625" thick, all wood construction remains durable for many seasons.
